Re: Credit/debit terminal

For me it would help a lot to just have POS drop a file indicating total purchase amount and cash withdrawal amount (for debit cards) similar to how the APRINT and PERTPOLE programs work - then I could handle the integration with the credit card terminal software myself (as mentioned in another post...

Re: Alternate prices.

Well, since the background is red for alternative prices it's quite easy to distinguish. I haven't made a mistake so far :).

Re: SELF CHECKOUT

I was actually just thinking that this could be a practical feature and was going to make a feature suggestion ;)

Re: Alternate prices.

Great feature! Would it be possible to reset it between each sale? I can imagine that it could be easy to forget and then risk selling stuff far too cheap to regular customers.

Feature request: Indicate credit/ debit card sale

I am able to control my credit card terminal from the computer. What I'd really like is of course to automatically send the amount directly from POS as a credit/ debit card sale is being rung up. This could simply be a disk file like the pole.dat file containing the total amount (I was hoping that p...

Itemized report for current day

I can't seem to find a way to show an itemized report for the current day (register session) - or, even better, a specific date. Like now, when I'd like to know how many waffles I've sold today (without going through each sale manually). I know I can get merchandise reports but that will show a tota...

Re: Pertelian device as pole display

Thanks Bruce for your ideas regarding my problem with the pole display going blank. It has worked better this year, some times staying active for almost a week without needing to unplug it. It seems like when this happen that pertpole.exe freezes/ crashes and to be able to close it I have to unplug....

Re: Feature request: Tax summary in reports

Then I'll have to stick to my categories :). I don't quite understand how other people do it though, I guess tax reports are done different in the U.S.

Re: Feature request: Guest/ customer counter

The transaction counter is not really interesting for me since the same customer can make several purchases and I also don't want to include family members as guests (this is a small summer cafè on our farm so family members come and go all the time). The way I do this now is to count guests on a pa...

Re: Feature request: Guest/ customer counter

No, I want to keep the count of course. The subtract possibility would just be in case of error.

Re: Feature request: Tax summary in reports

I know that and that's how I've done it, but I need a total for articles sold exempt tax. This is what I've used the categories for (i.e. one for 0%, one for 14% and one for 25%). In addition there is a special rule for certain articles bought from people who are not tax registered themselves: Then ...

Re: Clock is not correct when returning from hibernation

This is running on Windows 7 RC. I can check if the same happens on Vista/ XP.

Speaking of time, is there any way to get POS to show a 24H clock rather than AM/ PM?

Re: Feature request: Tax summary in reports

That's right. However, it doesn't specify items sold that are exempt tax (i.e. books here in Norway). I could probably calculate it from the numbers given though.
