About this release
The Commerce Suite is integrated with LS Central, providing simplified apps and service with real-time connectivity through web services. This version was released with LS Central version 29.0.
The Commerce Suite includes:
- Commerce Service – version 2026.10
- Mobile POS (Android) – version 2026.10
- Mobile Inventory (Android) – version 2026.10
- ScanPayGo (Android & iOS) - version 2026.10
Note: All released clients connect by default to a central Commerce service that is hosted in the cloud. This server is connected to LS Central (29.xx), which is populated with demo data and acts as a source of data suitable for demonstrations and software evaluation.
- To request a local installation of the Commerce Service for any of the solutions that you wish to privately host and connect to your LS Central solution, contact LS Retail through Partner Support on the LS Retail Portal (log in required).
Commerce Service is unit tested against LS Nav (11.xx, 13.xx) and LS Central (14.xx, 15.xx, 17.x, 19.x, 22.x, 24.x, 26.x, 27.x, 28.x, 29.x).

Note: There is new configuration setting CompanyId for Central API Page WS. If you are updating older installation you need to add this line to appsettings.config file with Central Company Id, that can be found in Central - Companies with Page Inspection.
<add key="BOConnection.Nav.CompanyId" value="<Central Company GUID Id>" />
Note: There is a new Encr setting for password encryption to use in Appsetting. The hard-coded key for it was removed and moved to Appsetting, and it can be encrypted there as well. If you used encryption for passwords in older versions, you may need to redo the password encryption and update the settings files with new data.
Use the new CommercePwdGenerator.exe tool to generate a new encrypted password. To encrypt Encr Code, use the tool without Encr Code, and put the password into the Appsettings file as:
<add key="Security.EncrCode" value="Rxxxx=:encr:" />
