What’s new in 5.7.28

Virtual Keyboard Improvements
The on-screen keyboard now works more smoothly across touch-screen use (search fields, grid cells, address and tag entry). Overall, touch data entry has been made easier and more reliable. Please check Settings->Local Settings->Keyboard

Navcore: Address & Postcode Lookup
New address and postcode lookup support has been added. During customer entry, address auto-complete lets you enter addresses quickly and accurately. This function needs Navcore license. You can use your own Google Maps or Tomtom API keys.

Important Messaging Server Update → Better Memory Management
The messaging server has been reworked to eliminate memory leaks and connection buildup. Installations that stay running for long periods now behave more reliably and consume fewer resources.

.NET Framework 4.8 Migration
The application infrastructure has begun migrating to .NET 4.8, providing better compatibility with current Windows versions and a solid foundation for future updates.

Payment & Device Integrations
Faster payment processing and various payment-device fixes (Hugin, Dejavoo, Ödeal/TSM), along with improvements to tip and split-payment calculations.

General Improvements & Stability
Overall stability has been improved with fixes for the “Send Menu to Go Office” freeze, the Order Tag limit issue, and various integration fixes (Jetrik, EDocument, OKC).

:warning:
In the new version, where many new features have been added and
updates have been made, we would like to draw your attention to some
important aspects regarding the licensing of the product.

We have made improvements and adjustments in licensing in this
version. Therefore, for all SambaPOS versions prior to 5.7.14, it will
be necessary to perform a licensing after the update.

This means that even if you install over the existing V5, after the
installation is complete, you should run Licensing.exe to perform a
quick licensing using your license email address and password.

After licensing from the main machine, the Message Server will work
and automatically license all terminals connected to it once it is
defined.

From this version onwards, it is no longer mandatory for terminals to be closed.
Note: If the terminals are open during licensing, you need to exit and
re-enter the program for re-licensing.

Step-by-Step Licensing for the Update:

  • Be sure to back up your database.
  • Update/install SambaPOS on all computers.
  • On the main computer, run Licensing.exe to perform licensing.
  • Run the Message Server or restart it if it’s already running.
  • Start your main computer and terminals.

Step-by-Step Licensing for a New Installation:

  • Install SambaPOS.
  • Start SambaPOS and set up the SQL Database and Message Server
    connections, then save.
  • Run/Install the Message Server on the port specified.
  • Restart the program (to create the database and connect to the Message Server).
  • Run Licensing.exe to complete the licensing process.
  • Restart the Message Server, and then start SambaPOS to begin using it.
