Hotfixes are automatically included in the following service packs.

Hotfix 8 from 10.09.2019

Please prepare yourself immediately for the cash security regulation. The changeovers are under high pressure: Link...

  • Hypersoft POS:

    • If the seat number is forced, the numeric keypad now also appears automatically if no number has been entered.

    • The cash register function Set current date was removed a long time ago without replacement. If you still press the key, a rejection message appears. In these cases, remove the cash register function from the key.
    • items that only had one query and this query also causes price differences were handled incorrectly for transactions with initial discounts.

    • The booking of items with a time limit from the item search has been improved.

  • Hypersoft mPOS: If changes are made during operation as a result of shop configuration settings, SmartSwap, requirements settings or removal of items from a shop, all restarted mPOS programs may have shown errors such as incorrect item assignment on the fixed keys, incomprehensible error messages or other side effects. This is largely prevented, but complex changes should not be made during operation and without restarting the system.
  • The program PMS hotel connection was extensively revised:

    • For users of certain PMS connections, there is the option of a free license of the Hypersoft POS system on the PMS Front Office for transaction processing.

    • In the case of invoice copies from invoices to rooms, the room information was printed twice.

June 2019 Hotfixes 1-13 for SP 5

Increased security for operator secret numbers

We recommend operator keys for secure login to POS systems.

Some extensions have been integrated to make the secret numbers more secure. We recommend that you use these extensions in any case (even if you are using user keys). Enable enhanced security for operator secret numbers

(A function to support a user hierarchy has also been implemented).

 

New reservation 2.0, new customer base 2.0 and new card management 2.0

The newly developed POS interface of the reservation in the well-known Hypersoft standard.

If you use one of the three programs, nothing changes for you. The new programmes run in parallel with the existing ones. However, if you want to use one of the new programs, we will convert the program to the new versions together with you. If you already have customer data, it will be converted. If you need a conversion of reservation data or card management please contact your vendor, who will discuss the possibilities for your needs with us.

Please note that the new reservation 2.0 also requires a license for the customer base. The new Reservation 2.0 is much easier to set up and use. As usual with a new version further comfortable details will be added soon. The interface of the reservation to the cash register system has been renewed and is much more comfortable.

The customer master 2.0 is back in the portal, except that there are no more complete local copies of the data. The portal customer base is the leading system across all locations. Customer addresses are only saved with transactions (invoices) in the local system. The new customer base can now work with Card Management and Reservation 2.0. Soon also with web vouchers and bonus system. Later webshop and more will follow.

Environmental awareness with Hypersoft, the CO² Carbon Footprint

Everybody and every company leaves a carbon footprint. This is why Hypersoft has set itself the task of contributing to climate protection.

Store the CO2 balance of the respective items in the item master, the Hypersoft POS system, and thus create the possibility for your customers to make a transparent contribution to a sustainable future.

The /CO² Carbon FootprintClosed The CO2 balance (greenhouse gas balance or CO2 footprint) is a measure of the amount of CO2 caused in the manufacture of the item. is an indicator that will increasingly be taken into account when ordering from customers. You can already start entering the key figure in the item master.

    • If several new items were created, the uniqueness of the free item numbers not yet saved was not checked.

    • The new list Item details variant 2 can output any information from the Special featuresin lists.
  • Bonus system: The new bonus systemthat can be used by all customers who also have web vouchers has been revised. Dialogues are easier to use and as essential improvements, processes that remain open with New Balance retain the information of a bonus card that may already have been read in, so that it does not have to be read in again to complete the process, just to collect points (to pay by credit already). The program can now also be used on the mPOS handheld with Rocket or Sonic.
  • CONTROLLER: In a central office the table view for Manage points of sale was not always updated when changing clients and in this context the assignment of an item to a point of sale in the "sub-client" failed.
  • Hypersoft mPOS: The hotel room number was missing on bills. (No update procedures necessary).
  • Hypersoft POS:
    • Change Management: If you have to switch to an alternative printer, a new error message appears in the header text. You can switch it off if you want to divert calls. Read more in the topic Alternative printer in case of printer failure
    • Change Management: The external query was significantly improved, extensively secured and also allows an abort. Normally your employees operate the new query intuitively without training.

    • Change Management: When MOBILE PEOPLE Accounting is active, the cash register function checks whether a customer is assigned to the transaction being completed. If no customer is assigned, closing is prevented. This is an additional security in case the check was not configured correctly. On the subject: Complete customer transactions

    • For queries, responses could be skipped if the last query had a number (higher than 1) (any surcharges were still calculated correctly).

    • Subsidy items could not be used in conjunction with queries.

    • The customer display was not updated if a discount was subsequently granted above the operation list.

For administrators and installers there is a new theme for Remote Services: RDP and remote access

For administrators and installers there is new basic knowledge for Legic systemsLegic basic knowledge. and new information about the start screen of the Live Report.

MyHypersoft update in calendar week 20

  • MOBILE PEOPLE Accounting payment orders with a total amount of 0,- could generate duplicate invoice numbers.

  • MOBILE PEOPLE Accounting Payment orders for which the invoice run was terminated could not be reopened at the POS.

  • The amount of document numbers in the cash journal has been increased to 999,999,999.

  • The download of the web voucher billing in Excel format did not work.

  • Supplement Pfandbon connection in the documentation.

Hotfix 11 from 14.05.2019

  • A simplified update procedure was introduced for CLOU MOBILE for Windows. If, as now, updates are transmitted, the confirmation on the mobile device is self-explanatory and is repeated automatically if necessary. You can instruct your employees not to do this. Simplified procedure as of May 2019
  • Under very rare circumstances, an error with different sums could occur in mPOS or CLOU MOBILE for Windows during immediate cancellation. Minor optical corrections were also made (battery display / time / back button on Orbit Next).
  • At the POS it was only possible to reverse more postings than were executed in reopened transactions with the authorization Reopen reversal in the transaction list (similar to correction reversal). All cancellations were correctly processed and evaluated in the journal and reporting system, so that these could also be evaluated by a usual cancellation control.

  • The cancellation document (for example, an invoice) now also contains the transaction number of the original transaction. Note Hypersoft: For tax reasons at least, secure your internal procedure to collect and file false invoices together with the cancellation receipt.

  • For the operator transfer at POS and mPOS, the calculation of the commission for a new operator was not taken into account. Depending on the setting, the commission turnover is transferred to the target operator or remains with the target operator.

  • If transaction completion was carried out by an operator who is not responsible for the transaction (e.g. in the case of a repeated transaction) and the turnover was taken over on demand, the possible setting "to maintain the booking operator status" was not applied and the booking operator incorrectly remained unchanged. Booked expenses remain with the booking operator even if this option is activated - since we assume that the booking operator must document his expenses further.

  • The cash register functions Change Payment Type and Modify Payment Type do not process payments from and to MOBILE PEOPLE Accounting or PMS Connection. This will also be treated accordingly. With the cash function Edit process or (new) processes: Edit such processes can be opened again, and then completed accordingly.

  • The automatic pause consideration was extended from the possible three pauses to twelve pauses.

  • Since Hotfix 9, open tasks could no longer be viewed in the list view.

  • Extension of the ticket printing function to A4 printer by the item description from the item master with new variable ArtInfoRtf (format is RTF).

  • The transfer of the voucher number to MOBILE PEOPLE Accounting when selling a web voucher now contains the PIN of the voucher, which means that the voucher code has been extended from 14 characters to 18 characters in the invoice.

For administrators and installers there is a preview of the new mobile handheld Sonic.

Due to the large number of changes in interface with the introduction of the new cancellation system with Servicepack 5 in March 2019, we will shortly issue a summary statement in the HS-SSP document regarding possible queries.

Hotfix 10 from 03.05.2019

Only for certain customers. Intermediate version of mPOS / CLOU MOBILE for Windows mainly notified by telephone.

MyHypersoft update in calendar week 18

  • New: .

Update:

Hotfix 9 from 29.04.2019

An mPOS hotfix for SP 5 had to be provided. See also the CLOU MOBILE updateservice .

  • mPOS/CLOU MOBILE: The new item info function displays memos, allergens and additives.
  • mPOS/CLOU MOBILE has been revised:
    • By using seat numbers when calling up an operation, you can split invoices much more easily and quickly, since the bookings for the seat are then already selected for splitting.
    • Improve behaviour when all payment terminals are busy when payment is requested.
    • The function of tips with overpayment was hedged.

    • When the table transfer was aborted, it could happen that other operators were given access to the process.

    • A focusing problem with the Windows Mobile keyboard during fax creation has been fixed.

    • You couldn't scan a barcode on orbit while splitting.
  • CLOU MOBILE for Orderman: Free attachments could accidentally be attached to an already cancelled item in case of cancellations before order.

  • The gastromatic interface was improved in order to clearly assign employees at several locations and to ensure the subsequent transfer of time data.

  • In the item master for locations switches appeared active, which are not active.
  • Kitchen Full Station has always marked the first item even without activated automatic.
  • The setting of the Oracle connection was adapted for operation outside Germany.
  • User authorizations with templates released correction cancellation and voucher return.
  • The document number of the operation was not displayed in the list view of the master operation overview.

  • The switches "Do not print payment methods" and "Change" have been decoupled. The payment types were printed only if change was switched.

  • The customer monitor has been improved to correct display problems in cancellations and other situations.
  • The return cancellation can be restricted to vouchers per operator. Look here...

  • At the POS, the items for prepaid top-up and prepaid payout no longer need to be specially assigned in the point of sale to be able to use the function.

  • The setting One-time use in voucher manager was not supported for bonus vouchers.

  • The sales distribution of the bonus portion of a bonus voucher was not always applied on a percentage basis.

The cash drawer was changed at the POS:

If processes are opened again, the cash drawer is only opened if at least one item is booked or cancelled additionally.

A change in the settings of the forms was necessary:

The switches payment methods do not print and change were coupled. The payment types were printed only if change was activated. The switches now react independently of each other.

The Change switch prints the Given and Change lines on the invoice.

If the check box Do not print payment methods is activated, only the Word TOTAL is output on the form (whether it is "BAR" - "KREDIT" etc. is omitted here).

If the switch is not active, this is also output (if only one payment type was used). If several payment types are involved, the line TOTAL is displayed again and the payment methods entered accordingly are listed.

If you do not know the payment type when you create an invoice and you change it without credit memo (depending on the situation and configuration), you should not issue an invoice with an incorrect payment type. Even then, it is better not to print out the method of payment unless you are legally obliged to do so.

Service pack 5 from 05.03.2019

Cancellation system for the Kassenverordnung 2020 extended

In the course of the cash regulation and fiscal requirements of other countries, we have now created a replacement for the counter entry-free immediate reversal. But even for you, the new cancellation system is more powerful and easier to operate. In future, all cancellations will be executed with offsetting entries, making them easier for you to understand. At the same time, we conceal these bookings before the order is cancelled, so that the operators work as usual. The system changes automatically with the update and you can then define queries for all cancellation categories, for example.
