October 2011 Feature Enhancements

We’re on Facebook. 

Like us to keep informed about the ever-growing suite of retail solutions from Innovative Computer, LLC. 

 

June 2011  Feature Enhancements

GUI speed key handling.  We’ve taken our speed key “quick-sell” feature off of the keyboard and onto the screen.  This feature works great for industries selling items that are not easily barcoded.  Perfect for Deli, Bakery and Fast Food implementations.  The keyboard speed key technology still remains, but now you have the added ability to view a graphical image of the keyboard speed key layout.  The user can then make selections using the keyboard, mouse, or touch screen.

 

February 2011  Feature Enhancements

Item Rental System - Rent products, track renting customers, delinquency reporting and late fee assessment

Email Marketing - Compose text or html messages and send bulk mailings to your valued customers.  Create distribution lists based on purchase history, location, birthdays and more!

Library Backup System - Save and restore libraries via FTP to an offsite host.  This utility evaluates the size of the libraries to be saved versus the available disk space.  It then saves each eligible library to a save file and then transmits to a separate server located on or offsite.

 

March 2010 Video Tutorials added to eRegister400

We pride ourselves on the excellent phone support we are able to provide our valued customers.  As an extension of that, we have recently launched a new support feature aimed at users who prefer to help themselves.  We are currently in the process of adding video tutorials for every feature in the eRegister400 suite.  Simply move your cursor over the option you would like to learn more about, press the HELP function key and a web browser opens playing a video demonstrating how to use the feature.  The features most used by cashiers have been completed, and managerial tutorials are soon to come. 

 

November 2009 Dual Currency Handling for International Installations

eRegister400 POS has always been capable of handling multiple tender types on a single transaction.  Now, additional capability has been added so that foreign and domestic currencies can be tendered on the same transaction.  Likewise, exchange rates can be manually maintained, or refreshed daily using webservices. 

 

April 2009 Integration to Amazon and UPS Worldship

Two new great modules have been added to the eRegister400 POS suite. 

 

You now have the ability to maintain item information that is Amazon specific, specify the portion of inventory you wish to make available for online sale, and synchronize your database to the Amazon Marketplace. 

 

We have also added integration to UPS Worldship.  The POS can pull cost of shipment estimates from UPS online so that you can better estimate the cost of shipping and handling.  In addition, the shipment information can be transferred to the UPS Worldship software to generate shipping labels and schedule delivery.

 

Both of these new applications can reduce tedious duplicate data entry, eliminate errors and help make your business run more efficiently.

 

January 2009 Handheld POS announced

Our POS transaction application is now mobile!  A full feature version of this application has been developed to run on smaller handheld device screens.  The standard 80x24 character screens have been reformatted to fit on 30x15 character screens, making the application easy to read and navigate.  This mobile application is Windows Mobile, Pocket PC, and iPhone compatible.

 

April 2008  eRegister400 online catalog announced. 

Point of Sale hardware and supplies that we currently provide will soon be available on our website for our customers’ convenience.   Thermal receipt paper, barcode labels, cabling, routers, thin clients, and more. 

 

March 2008  eRegister400 completes migration to RPG ILE environment. 

RPG IV provides a vast number of functional, performance, maintenance, and productivity benefits to the RPG environment.  In addition, it has the ability to encompass functionality across multiple programming languages, facilitating greater flexibility when integrating to external processes.

 

February 2008  New email application modules added to eRegister400. 

Distribute reports to upper management electronically.  In addition, have receipts and order confirmations emailed to customers who have their email address specified on their accounts. 

 

December 2007  Janam XP20 replaces Symbol product line for batch terminals.

 

November 2007  JavaMail API integration with eRegister400 POS enters the development arena.

The SNDDST feature embedded in OS400 has fallen short of our email solution goals on the iSeries.  JavaMail has been adopted as the foundation of eRegister400’s future direct-email capabilities.  Unlike SNDDST, it supports multipart html formatted emails and file attachments.

 

October 2007  Report Overlay feature added to eRegister400 product suite.

Our development team has streamlined the very confusing world of iSeries print overlays.  Now you can create a document “format” in any editor of your choice and attach your report output to it.  Use it to create a custom house account statement, or position your company logo on your invoices.  

 

August 2007  Palm Powered Symbol SPT1550 introduced to the eRegister400 physical inventory applications.

Introduction of this technology greatly enhances the existing physical inventory capabilities provided by the Symbol PDT3100 batch terminals currently in production.  Also, as a portable price lookup scanner, it can display more information, more easily.  Scan and display an items price, on hand value, vendor, or any other item specific data.
