About This Version
The LS Omni solutions are integrated with LS Central (13.06), providing simplified apps with real-time connectivity through web services. The LS Omni solutions are:
- Omni Service – version 4.0
- Mobile POS (Android) – version 4.0
- Mobile Inventory (Android) – version 4.0
- App Shell – version 1.7
Note: All released clients connect by default to a central LS Omni server hosted in the cloud. This server is connected to LS Central (13.xx) that is populated with demo data and acts as a source of data suitable for demonstrations and software evaluation. If you request a local installation of the LS Omni server for any of the solutions that you wish to host privately and connect to your LS Nav/LS Central solution, please contact LS Retail through Partner Support on the LS Retail Portal (log in required).
- The LS Omni Server is Unit Tested against 2018 (11.xx) and LS Central (13.xx).
- The Apps are only tested against LS Central (13.xx).
- To use LS Omni against LS Nav 2016 (9.xx) and LS Nav (10.xx), use LS Omni version 3.xx.
- To use LS Omni against LS Nav 2015 (8.xx), use LS Omni version 2.3.3.
- LS Nav older than version 8.x is not supported.
To be able to run older version of the apps, downloaded from mobiledemo.lsretail.com, against our demo server, the URL must be set to:
-
Version 2.4.x and up:
http://mobiledemo.lsretail.com/LSOmniService/appjson.svc
