Supported Languages

Most language resources are produced by Checkout Engine, hence languages by POS are to a great extent already supported by Checkout App. The following languages are supported locally by the application

  • Catalan
  • Danish
  • Dutch
  • English
  • Estonian
  • Finnish
  • French
  • German
  • Italian
  • Icelandic
  • Portuguese
  • Spanish
  • Swedish

If the device locale isn't among the supported above, the following will occur:

  • Local string resources (e.g., user interface buttons) will be shown as an identifier.
  • POS string resources (e.g., the menu and other dynamic content) will be presented in the device locale if it is supported by POS. If not supported, POS will use it's default locale which typically is the default locale for the region.

Security

The POS clients requires the operator to sign on with POS operator and password before any functions can be accessed. Hence, the security of the POS system applies also to the Checkout App.

Checkout App supports secure communication over HTTPS.

The screen can be locked when no actions are performed over Checkout App. This feature is disabled by default, and can be enabled using settings.
