New

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Waiter users with the **WAITER** role now always land on the waiter portal dashboard, even if they hit `/` or `/core/dashboard/` directly.
  • The public changelog (`/changelog/`) and legal pages (`/legal/terms/`, `/legal/privacy/`) are now always accessible without logging in.
  • POS now automatically opens a daily cash shift for the current cashier and branch on the first sale of the day and reuses it for subsequent sales.
  • New Sale correctly honours products configured with **0% tax**, only falling back to the default 16% VAT when no tax rate is configured for a product.
  • Cashier shifts can be closed directly from the Shift Summary list via a **Close shift** action for the cashier’s own open shifts.
