New features

• ACP-8305: By default, employees assigned to multiple user roles can perform functions allowed by any user role assigned to them regardless of the user role they used when they clocked in. Aloha Cloud now supports a new security control that limits the employee to only the permissions allowed for the user role under which they are clocked in. An employee with sufficient permission must enter their PIN and click Override to continue. The new security control is selected by default, limiting employee permissions. You must select this new security control to retain the original default behavior. Requires POS version: v6.15. For more information, refer to "Overriding user role permissions when multiple user roles assigned."

• ACP-7208: Aloha Cloud now supports displaying images for the corresponding menu item buttons on the POS screen, improving order accuracy and speed and enhancing the consumer experience. Be aware, if you enable this feature and an item within the selected category does not have a defined image, all item buttons appear the same size in the POS; however, the first two letters of the item name appear on the button instead for any item without a defined image. If no items within a category have a defined image, the POS screen appears as normal. Store-level overrides for item images and images on a category button are not currently supported. To view an example of images appearing on the POS screen, click "Viewing item images". Requires POS version: v6.15. For more information, refer to "Defining company information" and "Creating items.".
