LS NAV 2013 empowers consultants Easy design of every ‘page’ on the POS Layout and size Functionality POS Setup based on Default template Only deviations from Default need to be defined Sharing Shared data dramatically reduces necessary setup and makes modifications easier Example: Buttons for numpad (0-9) are defined once and re-used for login, price change, numpad in the POS etc.
POS Panels and the new user interface Every ‘page’ in the new user interface is based on a POS panel The panels are defined in NAV and the size and layout is flexible Each panel is divided into rows and columns The panels contain different controls Button pad (for menus) Data grid (for lists / lookups) Record zoom (card style presentation of data) Input control Browser control Media control
POS Styles A new concept to administrate the color and fonts used on the POS Styles can be linked to POS commands Makes it easy to change the look of the entire POS Example: Changing the style for PLU or Cancel commands will automatically change the buttons everywhere Different styles on the same POS interface The system automatically picks the correct style depending on who is working (cashier) and where (POS terminal / store) The same interface can have different styles without touching the functionality
Demo POS Styles POS Panels How can a consultant modify almost everything on the POS using the panels? The new control types Media control Browser control Dual display

Example: Creating a new POS interface My customer in Portugal requires a new POS interface 3 different security cameras shall be accessible on the POS Extended item info based on HTML Journal lines on the center of the screen Specific requests for colors and fonts This is solved by creating a new Interface profile The Interface profile needs a new main panel (#POS) but all other data can be shared with the Default profile
My new POS interface 3 columns 5 rows
