nComp POS Update 1.1.1.7

I have uploaded nCompPOS version 1.1.1.7.

I have now worked on the Turbocash v3.x End of Shift feature. It can now import Debtor accounts from Turbocash, and also you can end of shift now again in this version. To end of shift to Turbocash you will have to have all the debtors created in Turbocash and nCompPOS. Turbocash functionality will still change in the future.

And then the debtor handling were improved in nCompPOS also. A couple of bugs were fixed also.

I have added a link to a pdf file on how to install the nCompPOS software on my web page. How to install nCompPOS Software, you are welcome to try the software

Thanks

Update 1.0.4.21

I added for a client, that had to revert back to older backup data at hq, 2 Utilities on the Multi branch Feature.

On the POS invoice screen I added a option for marking the current POS Invoice as not send to hq. That with the next Run to send invoices to hq that the current invoice also will be send.

And on the Stock transfer screen I added a option for marking current stock transfer as already send to branch.

Thanks

Reason for Mysql 5.0 and above requirement

I am explaining in this post, the Mysql 5.0 or above requirement for NCompPOS. There is lots of questions about this subject because lots of people already have an older version of Mysql installed.

From Mysql 5.0 there were a function build in called 'Transaction save'. I am using this function in a lot of places for the following reason.

If there is a run that do lots of changes in your database, the transaction save function will test if the run was completed and only if the run was completed successfully will it post the changes to the database. So if anything happens during the run Mysql will divert back to how the data looked before the run was initiated. Example of such a situation is if you send your invoices over the internet to HQ and your connection is lost, you don't sit with half run data. In the half run data situation we would have had to restore a backup to fix the data.

If you still need to use an older Mysql I expect it to work I haven't build in any other mysql special features into the software. The older Mysql (Its tested with version 4.0 and above) don't give a error on the 'Transaction save' command it just ignore it so if the run is stopped half way, your data will be corrupt and you will have to restore a backup.

Thanks enjoy your day.

Update 1.0.4.20

I have uploaded a new stable version of NCompPOS 1.0.4.20 its just a bug fix release.

Free Basic version 'This will only include the basic features like a till', Paid Pro version 'This will include all the features except the Branch Sync Features' and multiple branch version 'This will include all the Features'.

Update 1.0.4.19

I Uploaded a new version of NCompPOS v1.0.4.19.

The changes that are included is you can now register via the web, and with a demo install you can just press the demo button if you are on the internet, then it will activate the software for 30 days. After that if you have payed you can just press the update registration button. So it means that you don't have to contact me every time for a key.

And the newest NCompPOS version are also compiled with the newest jvcl extensions for Delphi v3.36.

It looks like I have a new NcompPOS client in Cape Town. So there will be quite a bit of changes again, in the next month.

Thanks
