We are updating Cloud POS. Here are the details of what is included in this release:

Back Office 2.0

We’ve been working hard on overhauling the Back Office user interface to make it faster, more intuitive, and highly responsive. We’re excited to announce that development is now code complete. Final-stage testing is currently underway, with beta testing scheduled to begin shortly after the May release. Stay tuned for more updates soon.

In the meantime, users will continue using Back Office 1.0, with access to Back Office 2.0 available following initial testing.

Workshop Tag Improved *Requested by users via our Feedback Forum*

We’ve redesigned the Workshop Tag layout to display key information at the top of the page, making it quicker and easier to read, especially in a folder-style view. 

Supplier Notes Enhanced and Now Visible Within Purchase Orders  *Requested by users via our Feedback Forum*

We've expanded the Supplier Notes input field and increased the maximum character limit. Supplier Notes are now also visible directly within the Purchase Order when viewing supplier details, making it easier to access key information at a glance.
