- Reprint Invoices: This functionality allows to print every invoice related to a ticket directly from Web POS, using a new menu entry.
This new menu entry will open a popup which will allow the user to select one or more invoices to print, or directly print the receipt.
This menu entry will replace the current 'Print this Receipt' button for closed tickets - Convert a Sales Order into a Quotation: New menu entry to allow to convert an order to a quotation

- Customer Search Key sequence by Store: New field at Organization/Store level to define a sequence for the Business Partner Search Key (only for Customers created from the WebPOS). If the sequence field is filled on a store then the customers created from the terminals of that specific store will be created using that sequence.
Otherwise the current sequencing will be used. If the system is a multiserver environment, the Customer created on all servers will have exactly the same SK - Gift Cards - Reimburse in Different Payment Methods: This project is about to extend current Gift Cards functionality to allow reimburse Gift Card with different payment methods
- Service proposal by price range (tranche): An extension of services to define an amount tranche for a service. Only the services between those amounts will be shown during service selection in Web POS
- Deferred Services Enhancement: New functionality to improve the deferred services management. Added two buttons in WebPOS edit tab when the selected line is a deferred service to add/remove related lines
- Invoice Terms: WebPOS now supports two new invoice terms (apart from existing one "Immediate"): After delivery, and after order delivery.
