New Branding
As you may have noticed over the last few days we have been updating our branding, we’re now called Shopfront. We will continue to slowly make changes over the next few weeks – let us know what you think!
Components and Packages (Beta)
We’ve just released Components and Packages. Components and Packages allow you to sell products that are made up of other products and then edit them live on the sellscreen – what no lettuce and extra cheese on that burger? No problems!
To enable this new feature, head to the general settings and flick the switch for Components and Packages.
Xero Integration (Beta)
Use Xero for your accounting package? You can now send sales and purchases directly to Xero, reducing the time required the enter invoices twice and preventing keying errors! Contact us to get started.
ILG Promotions
Part of the Independant Liquor Group? We now automatically download and distribute promotions without you needing to do anything.
Held Receipt Printing
Want to provide customers with a copy of what products they put on hold or need to keep a seperate record from the POS? Well now you can – simple hold a sale and print the receipt as per normal.
Deli Barcodes
Shopfront is now supporting even more barcodes – print barcodes that incorporate a price? No more needing to manually change the price. Simply enable the “Use Price / Weight Labels” in the general settings, find the product, turn “Use Price / Weight Label” on and then add the barcode under the barcodes tab.
User Dashboard (Alpha)
Ready for a new insight into your store? Introducing the User Dashboard. Fully customisable for each user, it allows you to view all the data you require at a glance. More details coming soon – want to test it early? Contact us now!
