Idealpos Handheld V4 App works in conjunction with Idealpos 7 (Build 41 or higher) and requires the Restaurant Module in Idealpos.
Orders can be placed on the app and sent to the Idealpos Software where products are automatically printed to kitchen printers or displayed on Ideal Kitchen Monitor.
The app can be operated by the server, or, with our new customer ordering function, the customer themselves.
The app is designed to work well with both iPhones and iPads, with tailored functionality specific to each platform.
Other functions available on the app are table maps, product graphics, bill printing, table enquiries and viewing notes for specials of the day.
Items can be entered with seat numbers and text can be added to the order.
Demo mode is available for customers to use the app without networking it with the Idealpos Software.
V4 contains all the existing features and functionality of the V3 app, with the addition of using a new Handheld communications protocol. The new Handheld communications protocol will increase the reliability of communications between the Handheld app and the Idealpos Software.
When using Handheld V4 networked with the Idealpos Software, you need to install Idealpos V7 - Build 41 or higher.
