SambaPOS has built-in handling for JavaScript via Microsoft ClearScript. I’m not sure what ECMAScript version it is.

Background The script engine currently implemented in SambaPOS 5 is actually Microsoft JScript (similar to JavaScript) which is ECMAScript 3 (ES3 (Dec 1999)) compatible. As such, some functionality that you might find on the internet does not apply, such as new functionality added in ES5 (Dec 2009), ES6 (2015), or ES7 (2016).
