7. 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.

8. 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

9. 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

How can a consultant modify almost everything on the POS using the panels?

The code is open source so NAV developers can add their own functionality if required
.NET based interface with endless possibilities ...

12. 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

3 columns
5 rows
