Introducing Update 4070: Powerful New Features to Enhance Your Business

We’re excited to announce Update 4070, packed with security upgrades, smarter inventory management, improved sales tracking, and a brand-new online menu feature for restaurants. Let’s dive into what’s new!

Enhanced Security: Password Expiry Policies & Export Controls

🔒 Password Expiry for Staff Security is a top priority, so we’re introducing password expiry policies for staff accounts. Admins can now require employees to change their passwords periodically.

📌 How to Enable It: Go to General Settings → Store Settings → Security Settings, where you can set how long a password remains valid. If a user doesn’t update their password before it expires, they’ll be locked out until they reset it.

📋 Data Export Restrictions Admins now have greater control over who can export customer lists, stock lists, and universal stock lists. This added security measure ensures better protection of sensitive business data.

Smarter Pricing: Customer Price Profiles

🛒 Assign a Price Profile to Customers Now, you can attach custom pricing structures to customer accounts, automating discounts or special pricing for different customer groups.

👀 How It Works:

• Assign a price profile to a customer’s account.
• Whenever they make a purchase, the system automatically applies the correct pricing.
• Works across Guest and Patient pages too—perfect for businesses offering special rates to specific groups (e.g., insurance plans, corporate discounts).

✅ This change eliminates manual price adjustments at checkout, making transactions faster and more accurate!

Improved Inventory Management

📦 More Accurate Consumption Rate Calculations We’ve fine-tuned how consumption rates are calculated! The system now excludes inactive stock days, giving you more precise reorder suggestions.

💡 Key Enhancements:

• Smarter Reorder Level Recommendations (based on active stock days).
• New option to analyze data from all outlets when determining reorder levels.
• More detailed insights on stock availability, including how long your inventory will last based on demand.

📊 New Product Performance Metrics Products are now categorized based on profitability and demand, helping you identify high-performing items at a glance.

🔹 New Data Points Include:

• Profit Impact Categories (High, Medium, Low)
• Demand Trends (Stable, Moderate, Seasonal)
• Total Demand, Average Demand & Maximum Demand
• Markup, Margin & Profit Details

Sales & Reporting Upgrades

📆 Summarize Sales by Hour You can now view sales trends by hour in addition to daily, weekly, and monthly summaries—perfect for identifying peak business hours!

🎯 Improved Loyalty Tracking Clicking on a loyalty transaction now brings up a detailed breakdown of how points were earned and redeemed.

Cloud Enhancements: Track Inventory & Business Activity in Real Time

☁️ New Cloud-Based Inventory Tracking For the first time, business owners can now track inventory activity from the cloud, making it easier to stay on top of stock movements.

🔎 Outlet Connection Monitoring Want to know if your outlets are syncing properly? The system now displays the last time each outlet connected to the cloud, ensuring your data is always up to date.

Revolutionizing Restaurants: Online Menus with QR Codes

🍽️ Introducing the Online Menu Feature Restaurants, bars, and cafés can now create online menus that customers can access via QR codes!

📌 How to Set It Up:

1. Go to Businesses → Food Menu and activate the feature.
2. The system generates a QR code and a direct link to your menu.
3. Print the QR code and place it on tables—customers scan it to view the menu!

✅ Key Benefits:
