TEXT INSERTION/OVERLAY FOR NVR SYSTEMS
This was a request comes from one of my bars. They switched from Lightspeed and they had this feature. Their 2nd site has Aloha and is currently using this feature.
For Aloha they are using a Text Capture Device via the RS-232 serial connection, which we don't and can't use. Lightspeed uses a Text Exporter via IP. Not sure the methodology for the Text Exporter.
But I do know that both options allow the text overlay to be recorded for playback. All it really needs to show is the item, modifier, discount, removal or void and the payment method (Cash, Credit Card, Gift Card, Comp etc...)
AS FAR AS I KNOW - Toast does not offer this.
remove tip line from gift card
We have the option to remove the tip line from gift cards, but when we do that it does it for credit cards as well. Can we make it where the tip line is removed when using a gift card only?
MAKE STARTING BANK TO APPLY TO THE CASH DRAWER AND NOT EACH EMPLOYEE
As of right now when a till is set it applies to everyone that can close cash. This currently confuses the customer when they look at their reporting and you want to set the single cash drawer to $300 and at the end of the night it shows your starting balance of $1,800.00 (5 servers and 1 bartender). In the other systems you can add the Fixed Starting Balance of $300.00 to the individual CASH DRAWER and when that drawer is accessed it will update the money in the drawer. If the Bartender closes $1,000.00 in cash sales and does a $200.00 Payout it will reflect in his drawer and report will show
CASH IN HAND: $800.00
Cash Collected: $1,000.00
Pay Out: $200.00
STARTING BANK: $400.00
CASH IN DRAWER: $1,200.00

Transaction Rounding
The merchant was informed by his bank that the U.S. will discontinue the penny, with the Federal Reserve expected to stop production in early 2026. He inquired whether Linga has the capability to round transaction totals to the nearest .00 or .05 to help ensure accurate reconciliation of future cash transactions.
Need feature to combine To Go orders
There is currently no way to combine or merge two or more TO GO checks into a single check. There are multiple scenarios where this need can arise. The only way to do this now is to open each check and move each check to a table. Then merge them and change them back to the to go order type and pay the check out. I have had nearly every merchant complain about this more than once. We need a "merge" option on the TO GO orders like there is on the table layout screen. Thanks.
Add the Ability to Properly Sort Loyalty Discounts
Currently (according to t#215113) the only yay to properly group and sort loyalty discounts is by adding them in the order you want them to appear. You are unable to change this order once the loyalty discounts have been made, so if you want to add something to the top of the list, you have to remove and re add everything.
Role Permission for Attach
Partner Feature Request. The merchant needs the ability to restrict the ability to attach modifiers to an item in order to prevent employees from ringing in open modifiers.
Bill F. wants this treated as high priority.
Option to show hidden status column in item/modifier/modifier group view
Linga has the ability in the new ui to customize the columns being displayed. It would be nice to have a few more options.
Specifically it would be very nice to be able to see which items are hidden in the POS and online order (maybe kiosk too) so that we can be attentioned to that without going into the individual item settings.
add "reprint" notation on ticket for all tickets resent to kitchen
this will help with duplicate orders!
Option to Hide/remove sign out on pin login screen
Currently some merchants and employees at businesses misunderstand the usage of the sign out button on the POS in the pin login screen.
If the users sign out it "resets" the POS settings and the hardware.
Would like ability to hide, remove, or have a special sequence needed for button to appear.
