This functionality is setup in the Administration Module, and can be limited to selected POS Stations.

Administration Module

:: The Database structure has been changed to keep a log of any changes in the monthly contribution. This is crucial to ensure correct customer history reporting and improve audit control over the system.

Cash loader Module

:: NEW DESIGN for the cashloader unit
:: This Module can now accommodate touch screen hardware, which will in turn speed up the deposit process at the Cash loader.
:: The customer's Credit account ‘Available Balance' is displayed on-screen (if Credit Acc exists) – which will allow customer to determine what the balance is on the credit account before making deposits in cash loader (debit account).
:: The new GPT Aurora Note Acceptor can now also be used with the MOCCA Cash loader module - and accommodates all new South African bank notes.

Report Module

Rules driven Subsidised Meal Module

The previous versions of SPOSS(MOCCA) catered for Subsidised Meal pricing but did not offer any mechanism to control the quantity or times when these were allowed. This means that if the customer is “subsidised” he/she will be able to purchase Subsidised Meals (marked as subsidised) at any time, any number of quantities, which has led to wide-spread abuse of these privileges.

The new “Subsidised Meals” Module added to the Admin Module of MOCCA now provides for a custom rule base to be added to control this function. It caters for groups / individuals that are allowed to purchase Subsidised Meals at a specified quantity at a specified time for a specified time period during a specified shift. This will allow you to manage and control subsidised meals at your canteen more efficiently.
