New Feature

  • We’ve optimized how Lighspeed Retail checks the status of Verifone MX-915/925 terminals with Cayan: Lightspeed Retail no longer performs continual status checks in the background. Instead, Retail checks the status of Verifone terminals automatically prior to starting a transaction, or when you click the Check Status button on the Credit Card Terminals page (Settings > Shop Setup). CLD-11256

Bug Fixes and Enhancements

  • Taxes on Layaways and Special Orders: We fixed an issue where taxes are sometimes added to the totals on Layaways and Special Orders in stores with tax inclusive pricing. CLD-11221
  • Refunding via reference on Cayan: We fixed an issue where refunding a debit transaction back to the original card on a Cayan terminal does not work. CLD-10177
  • eCom shop name: Lightspeed Retail now requires that your eCom shop name comprises a minimum of 5 characters.  CLD-10448
  • Returned items in Special Orders: We fixed an issue whereby if you sell an item through a Special Order to a customer and the customer then returns the item, Lightspeed Retail adds the item back into inventory with the Not Ordered flag. CLD-10799
  • Inventory quantity change flag: If the quantity of an item changes while performing an inventory count, Lightspeed Retail automatically highlights the item, allowing you to account for the change in quantity. However, other actions can also trigger this flag. This is now fixed. CLD-10998
  • Taxes on eCom orders: We fixed an issue whereby the tax rate for items ordered through eCom are overridden in Lightspeed Retail. Now, if a sale is processed through eCom, Lightspeed Retail applies taxes as follows:
    • If a tax category is not specified for the sale, Retail applies the eCom shop’s default tax category.
    • If the customer has a tax category assigned in Retail, but pays a different tax percentage on eCom, the amount of tax charged in eCom will NOT be changed/overridden in Retail.
    • If a tax category is specified for the order, Retail applies the specified tax category.
    • If both a customer (with a tax category assigned in Retail) AND a tax category are specified, Retail applies the specified tax category. CLD-11207
  • Typos: We fixed a typo and improved the readability of the help text in the MailChimp bulk upload dialog box. We also fixed a typo on the employee Sign In page (Settings > Employees). CLD-11094 and  CLD-11301
