Feature flags are used extensively in the Self-Checkout (SCO) functionality. These flags can be set and used to control the behavior of the Self-Checkout (SCO) Connector. Feature flags can be set on an item, SCO Device, ro the SCO Connector, depending on the context of the feature flag.
LS Retail publishes a Rapidstart package with the feature flags that have been implemented and their default values. Here is a list of all possible feature flags, the values they can take, and if they apply to any specific devices.
SCO Connector
| Feature flag | Values | SCO | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| AuthorizationToken | GUID | Any | The unique authorization token that is valid for this SCO Connector. |
| VoidUnconcludedSalesAtStartup | true/false | Any | A sale is considered to be "unconcluded" when it has items in it but no payment. When an SCO Device is starting itself up, it usually asks for the latest sales information from the SCO Connector, and if the first sale that is sent from LS Central is an "unconcluded" transaction, this feature flag will decide if the SCO Connector will automatically void this transaction or display it as is with the items on it for the customer or attendant to finalize the sale in a normal way. |
