Fiscal Client – new version 1.2

As of today, 14/10/2021, the new version 1.2 of the Fiscal Client is available.

Besides some fixes, the current version also provides several new functions. In parallel with the new version, we have also added a number of features to the RetailForce Cloud. The update also provides some new functionalities for the “digital receipt” within the client as well as in the cloud portal.

  • RestoreByCloud – Restore configuration data of a client
  • Terminal archiving
  • Seasonal management for cash registers
  • Contract management in the cloud

Extension for Digital Receipts

As of the 1.2 update, digital receipts can be displayed within the RetailForce Cloud Portal. In order to find the corresponding document, a document search has been integrated.

Receipt search and display are components of the new product “Digital Receipt Advanced”. While the “Digital Receipt Light” package stores electronic receipts for 30 days, the Advanced package offers a receipt archive for storage in accordance with the original document for a period of 10 years. The same goes for analysis functions – from now on, you can track which receipts were actually retrieved by the customer. In the course of the next updates, we will expand the range of functions in this area.

Digital Receipt – offline

With the “Offline digital receipt”, you can now send your customers digital receipts even if the internet connection is not available for a short period of time. This feature can be used when utilizing the Fiscal Client. If the client cannot connect to the RetailForce Cloud at the moment, it generates a QR code (receipt reference) at the checkout, which the checkout displays to the customer – for example via the customer display. As soon as the connection to the cloud is re-established, the client transmits the receipt reference together with the actual receipt to the RetailForce Cloud. If the customer scans the QR code at the checkout and the digital receipt is not yet in the cloud infrastructure, they are redirected to a page. On this page, the customer can enter his or her e-mail address. As soon as the receipt arrives in the cloud, it is forwarded to the email address entered. The e-mail address will only be used for this purpose and will be deleted after the receipt has been sent.
