  • Passthrough tokens are now supported, allowing operators to switch devices between MIDs without contacting SkyTab Venue Support to update the device tokens

    • Requires enablement for each organization

      • Contact SkyTab Venue Support or your Account Manager to enable this functionality

    • Once enabled, the token set on the menu via the Merchant will be used for the card present payment transaction and will override the device token set in Paxstore. 

      • It is imperative that Merchants are comprehensively and accurately set on all of your menus in Canopy 2.0 – refer to Settings - Merchants for guidance on setting merchants on your menus 

    • This enhancement will reduce reconciliation issues caused by mismatched MIDs on devices and menus

    • Minimum recommended APK version is 2.19.7

    • Minimum BroadPOS versions required:

      • All devices other than Q25 and E700/Q20

        • BroadPOS Lite V1.00.18E_20241220 (new Gold Standard)

        • BroadPOS Manager V1.02.00E_20250226 (new Gold Standard)

      • Q20

        • Shift4-HC-Restaurant-Q20L V1.02.03E_20240513 (current Gold Standard)

  • Auto-printing of receipts can now be enabled at the device level on concessions POS devices with a receipt printer (network or USB) configured

    • To configure, go to Hamburger menu > Configuration > Select Menu > Select Close Tab Method > Configure Receipt Printer > Receipt Printer Settings

      • Auto-Print will be disabled by default

      • The 'Print 2 Copies' option will be activated after enabling Auto-Print

      • The Auto-Print configuration will persist until the POS app data is cleared

    • The user can select whether to auto-print 1 or 2 copies of the receipt

    • Existing functionality of manual receipt printing will remain intact regardless of the Auto-Print configuration

  • Kiosk barcode scanning self-checkout is now supported on single-menu Kiosks

  • Manager-restricted price adjustments are now supported on Concessions POS for items in the cart or an open tab

    • To adjust an item price

      • From the cart for a new order or service round, or order details for an open tab, tap an item to open the Item Details drawer

      • Tap the 'Adjust' button next to the item price

      • Enter the desired price > tap Adjust

      • Enter valid Manager PIN

    • All like items in the order will have their price adjusted. If the same item is subsequently added to a tab following a price adjustment, then it would be added at the original price and the attendant would need to do another price adjustment for the newly added item(s)

  • Orders in Submitted or Authorization Failed state will now be moved to Cancelled state when the cart is cleared prior to completing the order

  • Order/invoice number assignment is now more reliable, reducing the occurrences of duplicated and skipped order/invoice numbers

    • A new order/invoice number will now be assigned to the next order after clearing the cart anytime during the ordering flow

  • Fixed custom tenders can now be stacked when closing an order

    • If a fixed custom tender is applied and does not cover the entire order amount, the same tender will be listed in the available tenders to pay the balance

    • A fixed custom tender may be applied an unlimited number of times until the full balance is paid

  • Various CFD enhancements:

    • When tipping and service charge are disabled, the guest-facing confirmation screen will now be skipped; BroadPOS will open immediately upon the attendant selecting Card tender

    • When paying with a scan tender, the remaining ticket or gift card balance will now be displayed on the guest-facing receipt screen

    • When receipt printing is enabled, there is now a Print Receipt button on the attendant facing “Customer Viewing Receipt” screen, allowing the attendant to initiate a receipt print

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed an intermittent issue where the receipt sometimes contained incorrect totals or items

  • Fixed an intermittent issue where gratuity added to back bar tabs was not being included in the settlement amount of the payment

  • Fixed an issue where cart updates made prior to the payment were not always accurately reflected on the final order
