Introduction

Openbravo POS 2.10 includes a large list of new functionalities and bug fixes included in this release new features.

This release is available for download at SourceForge.net: Files.

New features

• New customers module. With this module Openbravo POS users will be able to assign customers to receipts using the customer's loyalty card, create invoices, track the customer account, make customers payments, execute customers reports, and more. More information: Openbravo POS Customers Management

• New localization features. To achieve the support of the taxes laws of different countries and cultures Openbravo POS now includes a new event system that allows to execute developer scripting code and adapt the receipts generation to the rules required. In this point there also has been included a new dialog that allows to split a receipt between two or more customers and a useful cash change calculator based on the country coins and banknotes. More information: Openbravo POS Scripting Tutorial.

• New reports structure. With the new reports structure developers of Openbravo POS will be able to add and modify easily new reports and charts without having deal with the source code. Reports are now defined using plain text files that developers can edit using his preferred text editor or a graphical designer. To install newly created reports is as simple as copy the report definition files to the reports folder and create a menu option for the report. All reports and charts of Openbravo POS has been ported to the new structure and new reports has been created. More information: Openbravo POS Reports and Charts Tutorial.

• Improved integration with Openbravo ERP. There has been included in the previous integration more data like customers synchronization and warehouse information synchronization. More information: Openbravo POS Integration.

• Sample database. A sample restaurant database has been created for evaluation purposes with a list of products, images, users, and operational data. Available only from the SVN repository.

• Included support for the IBM SurePOS 500 Series.

• Many other other minor features and bugs fixes. For example:
  • Users can log on using his employee card with his / her token stored in the magnetic band or printer in the bar code.
  • Customer information can be assigned to the current receipt reading his / her loyalty card.
  • Split a receipt payment between customers.
  • The size of the selector and product buttons is configurable by the administrator.

Upgrading from Openbravo POS 2.00

If you are planning to update your current Openbravo POS 2.00 to the new 2.10 release, we recommend to first make a backup of your database and discard this backup only when everything has been tested to work with the new version.

If the first time Openbravo POS 2.10 starts the database is from a 2.00 it asks to the user if it should be upgraded. If the user selects yes, the SQL script that upgrades the database structure is executed and Openbravo POS starts normally.

The only issue that appear in an upgraded installation of Openbravo POS is that the new menu options are not accessible because the permissions list are not updated and have to be done manually. For example, to add to the Administrator role all the menu options of 2.10 go to the roles panel and include the following lines to the permissions list:

<class name="com.openbravo.pos.customers.CustomersPayment"/>
<class name="payment.debt"/>
<class name="/com/openbravo/reports/customers.bs"/>
<class name="/com/openbravo/reports/customersb.bs"/>
<class name="/com/openbravo/reports/productlabels.bs"/>
<class name="/com/openbravo/reports/productsales.bs"/>
<class name="/com/openbravo/reports/people.bs"/>

• 1984358 Openbravo POS does not start in Windows

If Openbravo POS is installed in Windows in a folder that contains spaces, for example: C:\Program Files\OpenbravoPOS. When executing start.bat the message Could not find the main class appears and Openbravo POS does not start. A workaround to this issue is to install Openbravo POS in a folder without spaces like: C:\OpenbravoPOS, or to replace the files start.bat and configure.bat by the files included the bug report.
