Tablet Version 4.5.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2026-08-31 | Version: 4.5.1

✨ Highlights

• Employee attendance and break management is now available on Tablet.
• Printer configuration can synchronize between Tablet and Backoffice with version-aware conflict handling.
• Delivery address and customer information display have been improved across supported order flows.
• Customer Display amounts, COD change, WebView performance, and operational diagnostics have been refined.

🎉 New Features

1. Employee Attendance and Break Management

• Staff can view the employee attendance list with pagination, search, and pull-to-refresh.
• Employees can clock in and clock out using their PIN, select a work role, and view their current attendance details.
• Attendance details show server time, shift duration, and a timeline for Clock In, Break Started, Break Ended, and Clock Out.
• Paid Break and Unpaid Break are supported, including configured break-rule selection and confirmation before a break starts.
• During a break, the remaining time is displayed. Minimum break duration, unavailable start times, and break overtime are handled according to the store configuration.
• Employees cannot clock out directly while on a break. The Tablet can return to the attendance or PIN lock flow during a break, and the Order Center can show a break reminder with a server-time countdown.
• Attendance actions use the store's configured PIN and attendance settings. Supported role selection includes configured external roles and OrderPin roles.
• Why it matters: Managers and staff can track attendance and break status directly from the POS with clearer real-time status.
• Configuration required: Attendance and PIN login must be enabled, and break rules and roles must be configured for the store.

2. Printer Configuration Synchronization

• Local printer settings now include version and update-time metadata for safer comparison with Backoffice settings.
• Tablet checks local and remote printer configurations and can upload a newer local configuration to Backoffice.
• When the remote configuration is newer, the Printer Settings page prompts staff to synchronize it manually instead of silently overwriting local settings.
• A Sync action applies the remote configuration locally and reconnects the printer. LAN, USB, and Bluetooth printers are supported.
• Backoffice can send printer synchronization and print-test tasks to the Tablet. Requests are validated against the shop, device, system source, printer serial number, update time, and configuration data.
• Printer deletion uploads the updated remote list before removing the local record, helping keep local and Backoffice data consistent.
• Why it matters: Printer settings are easier to reconcile across devices while reducing accidental configuration loss.

✨ Improvements

1. Delivery Address and Customer Information Improved

• Address editing now uses the Web POS delivery-address page and preserves existing address details through encoded data.
• Address data now includes map location information where available.
• Customer and delivery address fields are handled more consistently when creating customers, recording delivery orders, and viewing table-order or online-order details.
• After a customer is added to a delivery order, the Tablet refreshes the order details so the latest customer and address information is shown.
• In-store history and supported online-order details now display delivery addresses more reliably.
• Why it matters: Staff can correct or review delivery information with fewer missing or stale fields.

2. Customer Display Amounts Improved

• The Customer Display no longer shows the meal number in the left-side summary.
• Round Down is shown below Amount Due instead of as a separate left-side fee row.
• Total amount calculation and display now account for Round Down consistently, and the Round Down text remains visible at the intended size.
• Why it matters: Customers see a clearer and more consistent payment total.

3. Checkout and Payment Feedback Improved

• Cash on Delivery orders now show the change amount after checkout when applicable.
• The checkout-success toast is displayed reliably after a successful checkout.
• Supported third-party payment requests and results include improved diagnostic records for troubleshooting.
• Why it matters: Staff receive clearer confirmation of payment completion and the amount to return to the customer.

4. WebView and Embedded Page Performance Improved

• Previously loaded URLs are tracked to avoid unnecessary repeated loads during Compose recomposition.
• HTTP cache can be reused instead of being cleared on every load.
• WebView pages now show a loading state while opening, and loading overlays inside dialogs no longer obscure the underlying content.
• Address management avoids duplicate loading indicators.
• Why it matters: Embedded Backoffice pages open more smoothly and provide clearer loading feedback.

5. Ordering, Printing, Diagnostics, and Release Stability Improved

• Combo initialization and direct-add flows validate product availability before adding items to the cart.
• Delivery kitchen-receipt fields and print conditions have been corrected.
• Saved print selections and shift-handover printing conditions are handled more reliably.
• Network request tracing, log classification, and user context have been improved to support issue diagnosis.
• Release-build protection for network interfaces has been strengthened to reduce startup failures caused by code shrinking.
• Why it matters: Daily ordering, printing, troubleshooting, and application startup are more reliable.

⚠️ Notes

• Attendance and break functions require both attendance and PIN login to be enabled. Available roles, break rules, minimum durations, and overtime behavior depend on the store configuration.
• Attendance actions require the employee's correct PIN. Server time is used for attendance status and break countdowns.
• Printer synchronization compares printer serial number and update metadata. A newer remote configuration is presented for manual synchronization; it is not silently applied over local settings.
• Printer synchronization tasks require matching shop, device, system source, serial number, and valid configuration data.
• Delivery address editing and display depend on the order type, order state, available customer data, and the supported delivery workflow.
• Customer Display Round Down presentation depends on the payment total and the applicable rounding configuration.
• COD change is shown only when the order has a change amount to return.
• Embedded WebView behavior depends on the availability and response of the target Web POS page.
• The release also includes Kotlin, Compose, Gradle, and Android build configuration updates. These changes are internal to the release pipeline and do not change the supported Tablet workflows by themselves.
