Key new features
Shift management | |
Use shift management to control your operators. Turn on Shift control option (main menu > Tools > Options) so a shift must be started in order to collect any payment (close a customer session, top-up account, sell a ticket). When an operator starts/stops a shift, he enters his cash desk initial/final cash amount for the moment. You may compare these actual cash values to the calculated initial/final amounts. To start/stop a shift use main menu > Setup > Start shift or Stop shift items. |
|
Customer programs | |
Create a list of programs which your customers can start from TrueCafe Client. Use a customer pricing to select a program list for the corresponding customer type (main menu > Setup > Pricing > Pricing packages). |
|
Connection wizard | |
When you run TrueCafe Client the first time on your customer terminal, connection wizard starts and helps you connect your terminal to TrueCafe Server. It also adds a new terminal icon on the server side so you don't have to add your terminals manually from the server side any more. |
|
Wi-Fi sessions timeout | |
Stop a Wi-Fi session automatically when it's inactive for a few minutes or a customer leaves your shop not logging out. |
|
Promotional tickets | |
Create a number of tickets for the promotional purpose. When you sell a promo ticket, its amount is added to the "promo totals" in the daily report. |
|
Continue Wi-Fi session | |
When your customers log in they can now see their original redirected website links on the session info page and click them to continue their sessions. |
|
Sales report | |
View your sales and filter the list by a customer name, service, terminal name, operator name (main menu > View > Sales). |
|
View customer sessions | |
You can now click on the Sessions button on the customer window to get the list of the customer sessions. |
|
Hide drives | |
Hide logical drives on your customer terminals, for example the system drive (C:). Use main menu > Tools > Options > Security tab to select the drives to hide. |
|
Cleanup: sales data | |
In order to optimize your database you can delete the following sales data: unused customers, sales, customer sessions, top-ups and shifts. |
|
Select data folder | |
Select a folder where TrueCafe saves your data (database, logs, etc.). If you re-install the program, the setup detects your current database and copies it to the new location. Use Tools > Data folder menu to open your data folder. |
|
Scripts | |
Run external programs when TrueCafe Client logs on/off. You can use customer_id, terminal_id, pricing_package_id command line parameters, which are replaced with actual values when the script is called. |
