This article will keep you updated with major changes to the system throughout 2024.
Last updated 27 Apr 2024
We also maintain a Change Log for our EPoS and Cloud on our website. You can also see our Updates 2022 and 2023 pages, as well as Frequent Support Requests.
April
| Irregular Hours legislation changes and daily updates | We have implemented the changes to ensure the Kobas calculations follow the updated UK requirements. We will shortly support other local jurisdictions. |
| MPoS is now available outside of iPads | We now support a wider range of devices that operate as MPoS or MKDS. View the page for more details. |
| Online Ordering is available in Ireland using Euros | |
| Dojo Tap |
COMING SOON - This allows your staff to operate Kobas EPoS and take payments fully from one device at the table. |
March
| Allergen Management updates | We have simplified how allergens are managed within your EPoS items from cloud. |
| Report Engine: Tronc | We have added a new report that allows you to send venue sales information and staff hours worked via secure file transfer. This is useful for external Troncmasters. |
| Report Engine: Headline | We have updated our main headline report to include all Labour costings and full waste/comp information. |
| Irregular Hours: UK | Following significant legal changes in the UK, we have updated how we calculate Irregular Hours holidays. |
February
| Airship Integration | Kobas can now integrate with your Airship CRM account. Kobas sends live transaction data to Airship. |
| Guestline Integration | You can connect Kobas to your hotel using Guestline Rezylinx. The team can then charge a bill to an open room. |
| Report Engine: Spend per head | You can now request a scheduled weekly Spend Per Head report, where covers have been added to the tabs. |
| Report Engine: Stock check edits | This report will show you who has made edits to stock checks after the check was first saved. |
January
| Suppress order payment confirmation | When orders are placed on EPoS, by default there's a confirmation step. This helps to minimise operator errors. We have now given you the option, per venue, to skip this step, which will help speed of service. |
| Multiple tax rates on modifiers | We now show the theoretical Gross Profit percentage that a modifier achieves, based on price change and ingredients in that modifier. Because tax rate is applied by the EPoS Item, we show the GP% for each tax rate. |
| Day skip buttons on Daily Sales by Order Report | To speed up investigations, when looking through our transactions report (Daily Sales by Order), we have now added a "previous day" and "next day" button. |
| Improving part pay refunds on tabs | We have improved how we display refunds to part payments on tabs, making it clearer what has been refunded. The refund will appear in the session when the refund was made if the tab has been open across several sessions, or days. |
| Pricing history visibility for EPoS Items, Modifiers and Stock Ingredients. | We now display pricing history for items you purchase and sell. On the EPoS Item (PLU) view page, Modifier edit page and the Edit Ingredient page you will see historic prices, when they were changed and who changed them. These changes will allow you to better understand why certain revenue calculations are made. |
