Great the idea of ​​adding products that vary according to time . I would like to help test the version 3 to work, you know how long it will take to add variations as in version 2? Once you have entered could start lavorere and find bag.

Hello spanky. This feature is in my todo list but I've created an issue on Github for that for your info. Follow this item https://github.com/emreeren/SambaPOS-3/issues/104 and you'll know when it is completed.

Currently I'm trying to close product timer case. Needs more work than it seems

I think for modifiers this is the best solution, even if the prefixes would have been easier insertion. would be nice to add color to the various modifiers. the only inconvenient thing is when you clone a modifier does not copy the tag order and the map "very uncomfortable." for future beta updates before the database is always deleted?

[emre]

Good point about clones, I'll check that.
The color thing is a nice idea for grouped items but it needs some improvement. For now I'm on implementing most essential features for creating the first beta. If you can create a free account on github and create an issue for this I won't forget it and you'll be automatically notified when we implement that.
Thanks.

If I create a customer, and try to pay off a ticket on the customer account, it is not stored. is an error or something wrong?

[emre]

What is not stored? Customer, payment, ticket or account data?

[spanky]

the payment, is always 0. maybe something wrong.

Awesome.. 
To test migration from SambaPOS2 to SambaPOS3, let's say I want to test with real database from running workstation. I install SambaPOS3 and copy the SambaData2.sdf to SambaPOS3 folder and call it SambaData3.sdl?

I would install it right on the same computer and then let one of the cashiers take over and then see what happens..

[emre]

Hello Slabo. Databases are not compatible but we'll implement a migration tool after bringing V3 database to it's final state.

[spanky]

how do I display the amount due to customers report?

[emre]

Create a new Accounts > Account Screen, Name it as Customers, Click "Select" Next to Account Templates, Select Customer Accounts and Confirm it. Click "Display Details" Check box on the list to display all accounts. Save Account Screen.

Now when you click "Accounts" button on Navigation screen you'll see a button named "Customers" and when you click it will display all customer accounts with due amounts.

Perfect! always very precise and detailed. then report the print function will be eliminated?

[emre]

We'll have a print button there so we won't need separate report for account listings.
