Amicus Point of Sale Feature Requests!

Now that we have our Amicus POS partner network taking root around Australia, with official signed up, partners in Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. We're starting to be inundated with feature requests to enhance Amicus, our Point of Sale (POS) system for Supermarkets, Retail, Wholesale, Hospitality, and Fuel. So much so that the board (a whiteboard we've used up until now, see image below) won't fit any more features!

Hmmm... Time for a better solution.

Fortunately, we're already harnessing the power of JIRA to manage issues such as defects, new features, work items and so forth. Incidentally, Jira is in my humble opinion, the only way to manage such things in a proper and professional way. I'm very happy with the product although I'm not really keen to upgrade to the new 'per user' licensing they've implemented. So, in remedy to this growing situation, I've opened the public user registration features in Jira and setup a project for managing feature requests and voting.

Members of the public are encouraged to contribute their thoughts on the future development of Amicus by logging into Jira, searching for features they want and voting for them. If a feature isn't listed you're of course free to add it and you're also free to add comments to existing features.

Obviously, since we have such a neat feature voting system, we will be scheduling feature development largely based on the votes collected. So, rather than creating a new issue, try and search for an existing issue to vote on that way your feature is more likely to get enough support to enable development.

So please, log in and have your say! We are actively listening to what you, the customer, wants from our product.

As you probably know already, your initial purchase of Amicus point of sale software includes a 12 month subscription to updates, thus assuming you will be entitled to an update to receive your new feature if it is developed within your subscription and you have appropriate licences.
