New Features & Enhancements
Report Preview
From now on when a report is “Previewed” the following screen will be shown.
More details can be found here
New Reprint Full Docket view
The following is at selected stores in this release, but will be available for all in the next version.
This new window allows you to skim through the transactions and see the full docket reprint immediately.
You can search for a transaction value by entering in the values in the Total From or To.
You can also “sort” the columns by clicking the heading.
Scaling
We have found that some Windows updates have changed the “Text Size” which has distorted some of our Windows. We have made some adjustments to the program to ensure that the windows are aligned correctly.
Speed
We have made several adjustments to the Pending window and other windows with “grids” that have made a significant speed improvement.
Email prompting
There is now the ability to enter in a comment before an email is sent out.
This is a great improvement which would allow you to enter in some notes in the email about a particular purchase order or quote.
You will need to change the Prompt option in the Email setup window on the appropriate transaction type.
Search for Email Setup in the Striven menu.
In the Document Settings tab, change the Prompt option to Edit on the appropriate transaction type.
Press F9 to Save
Then from now on if a purchase order has been created, it will prompt with this window.
POS
Vii Gift Card Redemptions
IHG stores can now redeem any Electronic Gift Cards by selecting Vii Gift Card in the tender screen.
There is some setup that needs to be done behind the scenes to get this running at your store.
Please contact us if you are an IHG Store would like to get this going.
Once this has been configured, there will be a new Tender option at POS; IHGGift (eGift Card, 'I').
Once saving the Payment Tender, the following prompt appears; enabling the POS Staff to Scan or enter the Bar-code from the eGift Card presented.
Once this has been done, a second prompt is displayed for the POS Staff to enter the (4-digit) PIN Number associated with the eGift Card being tendered.
This process will check that there are enough funds available, and update the Tender Amount to the Balance Remaining on the eGift Card if the Tender Amount is more than the Available balance.
Cash Quotes & New Invoice Quote option
In the F3 - Sale Type, Q - Quotes.
There is a new option called S - Invoice Quote that will transfer the quote direct to an Invoice.
Debtors
Statement Notes
The normal notes and warning notes can now be in Bold or a different colour to stand out.
Statement Warning Notes
Warnings can be placed on particular statements if the customers balance is in a particular period.
These will show UNDER the normal notes on the first page.
Such as: If a customer is in 120 days, put a warning on the first page that there may be legal action…
You can have a different warning depending on the balance owing on the customer.
You can change the colours or put it in bold by clicking on the F2 button on the right top side of the notes area.
Statement - Show / Hide Discounts
Change this option if you dont wish to show the Discount amount on the transaction details.
Ability to run report based on the Balance as at “Now” or “Last Month”
It is handy to run a report based on balances as of “Now” or “what it was last month”.
Like doing a Debtor Export of email for all customers with a 60 day or more balance owing last month.
These new options can be found in the Filter selection in the F4 - Set Range, by clicking on the red arrow.
