SDK v262.2

clover-android-sdk

Data model changes

  • AdditionalChargeAmount - added the rate field and associated methods
  • AdditionalChargeType - added CONVENIENCE_FEE, CREDIT_SURCHARGE, and INTERAC_V2 charge types. The INTERAC type is deprecated.
  • Added the IdArray class
  • DisplayOrder - added the isVat field and associated methods
  • Payment - added the DISCOUNT and OFFLINE_RETRYING result statuses
  • PrintState - added PRINTING state
  • VoidedLineItem - added the approvedBy field and associated methods

New features

  • When working with an order, apps can create and display manager overrides for voided line items using the new approvedBy field.
  • Information about merchant-set additional charges on a credit transaction can be accessed using AdditionalChargeAmount.getRate. Apps displaying transaction details or printing custom receipts will need to be updated to show any fees (returned in the additionalCharges of the JSON response).
  • The SDK’s cash drawer APIs were adjusted to make it easier for apps to connect to and use external cash drawers or those built into Clover devices. In the future, this will make it easier and faster for Clover developers to support new models of native and external cash drawers. The updated CashDrawer and CashDrawers classes provide functions for working with Clover-printer-connected and external drawers, respectively.
  • The ACTION_KEYPAD action was added to provide a consistent way to take customer input on Clover devices. The keypad can be one of three types: numeric, email, or phone. See the documentation for complete details.
  • OrderV31Connector now has methods to allow you add line items in bulk: addFixedPriceLineItems, addPerUnitLineItems, and addVariablePriceLineItems.
