Release Notes | 4.8.2.2

Oolio Pay – incremental pre‑auth for bar tabs (no manager override required)

For bar tabs using pre‑authorisation, the system can now automatically increase the authorised amount when the tab exceeds its limit.
Key behaviour:
- When the tab hits its limit, instead of prompting for a manager override, the system can perform an incremental pre‑auth for a configurable amount.
- The tab limit and the card’s authorised amount are kept in sync.
- This reduces declined payments at finalisation and removes unnecessary friction for staff.
Controlled by new venue configuration options (e.g. incremental pre‑auth amount, forced pre‑auth on open via table group).

Aristocrat – support for customer PIN entry

Added support for customer PIN entry in the Aristocrat integration.
This enables more secure, compliant workflows where customers enter a PIN, improving authentication and aligning with gaming/venue requirements.

Metcash Host – pricebook import error resolved

An error that occurred when importing certain Metcash Host pricebooks has been fixed.
Metcash pricebooks attached to the job now import without causing the import process to fail.

Copying products with comments/descriptions now works reliably

Copying a product in Backoffice that had a Comment ID / Description ID previously:
- Showed an error during the copy process.
- Created the product but did not retain the new product name, forcing users to manually rename it.
The copy workflow has been corrected so that:
- No error is displayed when copying products with comment/description IDs.
- The new product name is correctly saved.

TicketIT export – products without barcodes no longer break the job

When exporting to TicketIT, if a product size/variant flagged for TicketIT had no barcode, the export job failed with an “Object reference” error.
The export logic now:
- Skips product size records that have no barcode.
- Allows the job to complete and export all correctly configured product sizes.

Product sort glitch on till startup resolved

On some tills, products were temporarily appearing with Sort = 1 when the POS started up.
The sort order would correct only after taking a payment or logging out/in.
Startup behaviour has been fixed so that product sort order is correct immediately, without requiring any workaround actions.

Gift Certificate vouchers can be issued without forcing an account charge

The Issue Voucher function for Gift Certificates (GC) previously:
- Did nothing when configured not to ask for an account.
- Only worked when the GC was charged to an account.
This has been fixed so that:
- Gift Certificates can again be issued without charging to an account, matching behaviour from earlier versions (e.g. 4.7.4.4).

Service charge can no longer be removed multiple times on the same sale

Previously, removing a manual service charge from a table could be repeated multiple times, even though the balance was already correct.
The workflow has been updated so that:
- Once a service charge is removed, it no longer reappears in the Sales Journal UI.

US credit‑card receipts now include Tip, Total & Signature lines (Adyen / Oolio Pay)

Printed credit‑card receipts (merchant & customer copies) now show:
- A Tip line
- A Total line
- A Signature line
This aligns with standard US table‑service workflows where guests write in the tip, total, and sign the merchant copy.
Applies only to credit‑card receipts, not standard itemised POS receipts, and supports scenarios where embedded Adyen receipts are disabled.

Database tool no longer overwrites Shared Data Path when refreshing

When running database.exe and refreshing the database (or updating tables), the Shared Data Path was incorrectly reset to the SQL database folder path.
Behaviour has been corrected:
- The Shared Data Path remains as originally configured and is no longer overwritten by a database refresh.
