Hypersoft Service Pack 3 from 22.05.2018

The new service pack is full of ergonomic, functional and optical improvements. It has never been so worthwhile to integrate the new things offered here into the operational procedure.

The new program Live Report will be the successor of the Infoboard, Dashboard and Webreport. The program is available to all Hypersoft customers and is already one of the most popular reporting programs. You can now use it with popular smartphones, smart TVs, or at work in your browser:

Enhanced design capabilities in Hypersoft POS Designer:

Item pictures can be issued on order vouchers. This is especially useful for queries and attachments to optimize communication. In general, other fonts and characters can also be printed.

New device management

The new device management supports not only Hypersoft devices but also all other devices in your company, as well as service intervals and external service providers (Info from 22.05.2018: The documentation on this topic is still in progress and will be updated shortly).

Cash books in Germany

Important remarks on the use of the cash book: The BMF considers the previous practice of posting non-cash sales in the cash books to be formally inadequate. The DStV, on the other hand, demands recognition of the many years of practical practice and sees the strict interpretation of the BMF as an unreasonable burden that is not matched by corresponding added value.

If you have any questions, please contact your tax advisor. You must decide how to use the cash book and, if necessary, waive cashless bookings. The current interpretation cannot simply be followed by further development, since this has raised new questions; for example: Would a customer a 100, - € invoice with 50, - € 19% and 7% VAT each. and pay 20,-€ in cash and 80,-€ non-cash with the multi-payment, the VAT could be paid. Do not uniquely assign records to the payment amount. Hypersoft waits for the latest developments and informs you of further changes to the program.

Small amount invoices: As of 1 January 2017, the maximum amount for small amount invoices was retroactively increased from 150 to 250 euros. The threshold value for an automatic query can be set in the checkout forms under Address from: .

Tips in Germany

epay status on tip: According to the current specifications of the German credit industry (and all acquirers), tips at (epay) payment terminals are currently only contact-based (but not contactless). This will only change with the new DC-POS 3.0 specification (probably available mid / end of 2018).

GoBD tipstatus : Be aware that cashless tips may be taxable. A congruent and verifiable settlement of cashless payments such as when using connected card devices and a corresponding usage concept are strongly recommended by Hypersoft to avoid the taxation of tips. However, we do not recommend the alternative of dispensing with cashless tips (only to save on the replacement of card devices). In addition, an agile coordination with your tax advisor on this subject should take place.

With this Digital Service extension, apps such as Hypersoft Webshop, Use Menu, smoothr and other pre-orders and orders can be seamlessly integrated into the Quick Service and Full Service. (The app connections are in certification or transactioning). Note: Pay attention (at least in Germany) to the taxation of tips for unconnected apps or create a best practice concept to avoid unnecessary tax when connecting to the hypersoft system.

Hypersoft Service Pack from 06.03.2018

New technical paths and new designations determine the update. For the coming years, we will concentrate on full Windows operating systems for the point of sale and portal functions in MyHypersoft.de for seamless deployment on all your end devices. This Hypersoft hybrid solution is unique and will lead the way for years to come. At the same time, this forms the flexible and professional basis for future technologies.

The term CLOU is no longer used for future POS systems. The term is still used in CLOU MOBILE for Windows (support of discontinued mobile Microsoft operating systems and with orbit) and in CLOU MOBILE for Orderman (ORDERMAN 7 in MAX compatibility mode). These two systems can be replaced at any time:

This update already supports the new Hypersoft ROCKET and ROCKET+ mobile devices based on Windows 10 IOT Professional, the devices will be available from May 2018 in any quantity. Hypersoft mPOS handheld in portrait format is used as the mobile POS system. It replaces the successful orbit to 100% and without acclimatization. The former COMPANION software has been renamed and is now called Hypersoft ePOS Tablet. It is largely identical to mPOS Handheld, but in landscape format, so you can use the programme on a tablet or PC as a secondary cash register.

The CLOU POS software is now called Hypersoft POS or more precisely Hypersoft POS Full-Service, Hypersoft POS Quick-Service and Hypersoft POS Ticket.

The POS system has an optimized design, optically it fits even better into your business and the operation of the dialogues is optimized for cognitive ergonomics and speed.

The cancellation system has been extended extensively and offers you extensive differentiation options for cancellations and booking treatments according to invoice under the term Reopen cancellations. In practice, this means that cancellations of bookings that have already been concluded with an invoice are clearly highlighted and special authorizations can be assigned for these. Special evaluations evaluate the different time periods between invoicing and later cancellation for you.
