PurpleHere POS v3.56 Update

For everyone

  • Real-time sync across all screens — Live Orders, Floor Plan, and the Kitchen Display now stay in sync instantly. Move an order forward or back from any screen and every other screen updates within seconds — no more refreshing. New orders appear on the Kitchen Display right away.
  • Stability improvements — Fixed a crash on staff login / PIN switch, added automatic recovery if the app fails to start, and improved how updates reach your devices.

For restaurant owners

  • Void & Cancel PIN protection — Require a manager PIN before staff remove order items or cancel an order — a safeguard against accidental or unauthorized changes. Turn it on under Settings → Operations → Manager PIN Approvals (right next to the Discount PIN). Every void and cancellation is recorded in the new Void & Cancel Log under Reports, showing the amount, payment status, and who approved it.
  • Consolidated ticket — station scope — Choose which kitchen stations each workstation's ticket covers (e.g. a kitchen ticket that excludes bar items).
  • Set-only menu items — Mark an item as *Set only* so it sells only inside a set — hidden from POS and mobile ordering while still working in sets.
  • Table kept after mobile order — Guests who scanned a table QR no longer need to re-enter the table when ordering again.

For brand owners

  • Set-only syncs to outlets — When you mark a brand menu item *Set only*, it now propagates to your linked outlets.
  • Brand menu image display — Menu cards now show the menu emoji when no photo is set.
