Configuring Logo Printing on POS

-

Introduction

Every Retail Store has a certain Logo to printing on their POS Receipt.

LS Central provides build in support for this functionality and makes it a matter of minutes to change the Logo and/or it’s properties.

In this blog, we will be looking at how to configure this feature.

Pre-requisites

  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
  • LS Central

Configuration

First, we need to make sure that the image we are passing is proper.

Make sure that the Image is in Bitmap or .bmp.

Other than this, unless your POS Printer supports it, make sure the image is gray scaled.

I used this website for conversion.

Store the Image on the local system, make sure the folder and the image do not require any special permissions to access.

In Business Central, search for POS Printers and open the POS Receipt Printer which you are using.

In the Logo tab, add the location of the Image and set the other properties.

Since, we are using the Image which is on our Local System, set the Logo Type as “Download”.

Open the POS and generate a POS Receipt.

Note: In some cases Logo is not visible on the Virtual Printer, it is recommended to test the configuration on an actual POS printer.

Conclusion

Thus, in this blog we saw how to configure Logo on POS Receipt.

Happy Coding!

Introduction Notifications in Business Central are alerts that appears in the Notification bar based on User actions. Notifications stack up from top to bottom, lasting until the user dismisses them, including those from sub-pages.  Validation errors are prioritized and shown before other notifications. We can use this to alert the user regarding something without taking all the user's notification towards it, in the way messages or errors do. They also have the option to allow Users to make a corrective action by embedding the action button directly into the notification. Let's see how it works.

Configure Gmail SMTP service in Business Central without "Allow Less Secure" setting

 Introduction Business Central has great email features like sending email, editing it with Rich Text, adding attachments, etc, but to send emails, you'll need to connect it with services like Outlook or Gmail. There is no outlook side configuration that is to be done if you are using Microsoft Outlook however if you are using Google's Gmail then there's a litte change that has happened on the configuration end. Starting May, 2022, Google has removed the "Allow Less Secure Apps" settings from the Google Accounts, which was essential is using Gmail to send emails from Business Central. However, to replace that we have "App Passwords" which we can use instead. Also, just something to keep in mind, Google is going to remove this from the "Google Workspace" accounts as well by Sept, 2024 so it would be wise for you to migrate your configurations to use app passwords.
