3. New Peripherals - We have added two new supported external accessories: The APG Vasario and MMFValuLine USB cash drawers.

4. Void a Sale - Merchants are able to Void a sale in their Transactions list as long as they have not yet settled that batch.

5. Print Settlement Report - Merchants can now print Settlement reports directly from their terminal on the Poynt printer.

6. Custom Tip Amount ($) - Merchants can now customize tip amounts on the Poynt Web Portal to be in dollar increments. This update was a highly requested feature and works particularly well for Merchants that sell items like coffee with smaller price amounts.
