We are updating Cloud POS. Here are the details of what's included in the November 2021 release:

Increased options for presenting a Gift Voucher to a customer *Requested by users via our Feedback Forum* 

Gift Voucher Codes can now be printed onto a label directly from the POS, allowing the option for labels to be added to personalised booklets or cards. 

The option to print full voucher information including a barcode onto its own 40-col receipt has been added to the POS. This allows the voucher to be separated off from the other transaction receipts and attached to booklets. *note this is only supported for Star cloud printers.

Option to pop till drawer with no receipt *Requested by users via our Feedback Forum* 

You now have the option to be able to pop the till drawer without printing a receipt. Helping to save money and the environment.*note this is only supported for Star cloud printers.

Receipts can now be printed with limited customer information *Requested by users via our Feedback Forum* 

Work Order Receipts, Order Invoices, and Workshop Tags can now all be printed with limited customer information via order actions and in the Workshop Module. Giving added data security in a busy shop.
