What's new in the latest version? (July 2010)

What's new in Dazzle Pawn v1.12.05

Standardization of all graphics files to "11 dot 3 format." A utility is available to check and modify your files if necessary. After installing 1.12.05, Please download and run this utility to bring your graphics files up to date. Run this program on your server when everyone is logged out.

New demonstration data for new installations, with self-updating data.

New startup video for new users, demonstrating how to write a pawn ticket.

Elimination of the Data Entry Setup for cheque cashing. All setup is now performed in Check Definitions.

Cheque MAKER tracking now optional (not required) on 3rd party cheques. Please go to your cheque DEFINITIONS and look at the "Security" tab, to see if you want to urn maker-tracking on or off. In the UK this will almost certainly be ON. But one or two US customers have expressed a desire to turn it OFF. You can now do this.

Dazzle Pawn v1.12.04

New webcam control technology has been introduced. As a result, DAZZLE™ can now recognize a wide range of webcams, using many different types of drivers (not just the old TWAIN drivers.) This includes the webcams built into many laptops. If you are using separate external cameras, it will work with Logitech, Phillips, Trust, IBM, HP, Microsoft, and many others.
Screens enhanced are: The customer screen, the pawn-item screen, the items-for-sale screen, and the jewellery appraisal screen
