New features
1. A field "Minimum spend" has been added to the gift card form. The idea is that if a "minimum spend" restriction has been set, the customer can only pay with the gift card if their basket total exceeds the threshold.
2. The limit is not being enforced yet, but support for minimum spend will be implemented soon in Brazil POS.
3. A new permission check box "Change POS version (Brazil POS only)" has been added to user group form.
4. Support for synchronizing new and modified discount records with API call "getAppliedPromotionRecords" has been added. (Starting from this version, back office will tag the discount records with a last modification time whenever the records change.)
5. Support for Actual Reports server version 2.112 (the version available in sandbox, arlatest.erply.com) has been added.
6. Gift cards now have three statuses — active, expired, and redeemed. The status is automatically defined and not user-changeable. (If a gift card is past its expiry date, it is expired; if its remaining value is 0, it is redeemed). In the list of gift cards, it is possible to filter by that status.
7. Formerly, there was a status dropdown on the gift card form with options "pending", "active" and "used". These statuses however did not mean anything; a "used" gift card could still be used for payment if it had a remaining balance. Therefore, Erply did not update the status automatically, either.
8. To restore the old dropdown and the old filter if needed, please apply configuration parameter enable_old_gift_card_status_dropdown = 1.
9. The "Quantities of packaging materials" section on the product form now has the following new & renamed fields:
- "Sales Package - plastic (PP, PE)" → "Sales Package - plastic (composite)"
- "Sales Package - plastic (PET)" → "Sales Package - plastic (mono)"
- "Sales Package - cardboard" → "Sales Package - paper and cardboard (composite)"
- New field "Sales Package - paper and cardboard (mono)"
10. The check box "Do not sell" on customer card has been removed. It was part of a canceled feature, and never had any effect.
11. Field "Replaces a previous product" on product card, added in 4.69, has been removed.
