Tixera’s ‘Fireball’ Release promises to strengthen the solution further!

After a rollercoaster year, consumers are now thrilled to get back to leisure experiences outside the home. Covid – 19 has impacted how people interact. It has made people accustomed to navigating the world at their own pace and in their own space during the pandemic. 

Now, they’re expecting the same type of experiences at theme parks and coincidentally Semnox has launched a new update for Tixera called Fireball 2.130.0 with advanced capabilities in POS, Reports, Lockers, and Web Management Studio. 

Stability and performance are a priority which means critical bugs have been identified and resolved. Let’s take a closer look at all the major enhancements by Tixera for Fireball 2.130.0:

Major Enhancements

POS Attendance

The staff attendance module in POS has been enhanced so the functionality is more flexible and accurate. The Clock-in and Clock-out from the POS are now editable and customizable based on the hierarchy of the users. At the user role level, here are the enhancements that are made:

  • Ability to auto clock-out when a staff clocks-in
  • Ability to add/modify/delete a clock-in or clock-out time record
  • Ability to modify the attendance role for a clock in/out of the record

Pay Rate Configuration and Calculation

Clients using the Attendance Module can calculate the pay rate for the staff. This enhancement comes with the following features:

  • The ability for the business to configure custom pay rates based on individual users
  • The ability for the business to calculate pay rates for overtime
  • The ability for the business to generate attendance and pay rate reports

XERO INTEGRATION

Tixera systems are now integrated with Xero accounting systems. This integration will leverage accounts to synchronize information from the POS system into Xero. The Xero integration automatically syncs sales orders, payments, purchases, and more. 

Xero is a web-based accounting system designed for small and growing businesses. It connects businesses with their trusted advisors and provides business owners with instant visibility of their financial position. As a web-based solution, Xero can be accessed from any device with an active internet connection. With Xero’s robust accounting features, businesses can view their cash flows, transactions, and account details from any location. 

POS STOCK

The POS module has been enhanced to allow users to receive the inventory items at POS counters for quick sales. This enhancement is aimed at reducing the delay in selling unavailable products at the stores. 

SMARTFUN VIRTUAL ARCADE INTEGRATION

Semnox’s customer app ‘Smartfun’ now comes with the ability for virtual gameplay for its users. The virtual game plays in the app can be mapped to gameplay on the site. The app users playing the game will receive points and these points received through the gameplay can be redeemed in-store. 

LOCKER INTEGRATION: METRA

Semnox’s locker management systems are integrated with Metra lockers – one of the leading digital locker vendors. The Metra locker system works based on network API to allocate lockers. Metra lockers are more reliable and provide many advanced features. In this first phase of the integration, lockers can be allocated in two modes – free and fixed lockers. 

STANDARDIZATION OF REPORTS

The reports module has been standardized to include solution-specific reports. The default reports available on installation have been standardized to include popular and set of useful most-sought metrics as a part of the reports. The enhancement in reports include:

  • Enhanced dynamic login page in web reports based on solution vertical
  • POSXReceipt and POSZReceipts enhanced to use customized design templates
  • Ability to make web reports as Active or Inactive
