Extension Usage Instructions

***IMPORTANT! Vextend Sell End of Life Notice***

This extension was created in 2017 by a Vend (now called Lightspeed) customer like you. However, the developer's own retail store switched to iPads in 2019, so any further developments of the extension has been limited. Starting in June 2024, Google may begin disabling some extension built on older software such as this extension.

Update 3/4/2024
I had planned to no longer support this software. I had pushed Lightspeed to consider their own replacement, but that doesn't seem to be happening. For reasons I will explain in the near future, I have a possible solution for the customer facing screen on the way with similar, although a few less, features. Hopefully more details will be available by the end of March 2024. In the meantime, today's update is simply to provide a temporary fix to allow this version of the extension to continue working with the Lightspeed changeover to new domains. This is a separate issue from the Google Manifest V2 issue, but it should be a quick fix to allow you to begin using the new domain on your sell screens.

Our backend extension for Lightspeed Retail-X (Vend), Vextend Office, has been updated to remain compatible with Chrome standards and will continue to be maintained for the foreseeable future. This is a completely different extension that doesn't carry any of the features of Vextend Sell.

Usage Notes: Upon first time load and after changing settings, you will need to refresh (press F5) on your Vend page one or two times to get all settings to fully load.

Take control of the features that you want in Vend POS while eliminating a few feature that are not ideal for all retail businesses.

You have full control over what settings to enable.

Vend Customer Facing Display for PC:
• Get a customer facing display for a second monitor; one of the biggest missing features in Vend POS! Displays all the line item and totals details! Auto boots to second monitor on load.
• Customer display can be split vertically to display sale information on right and advertising pictures you choose on the left. Advertise to customers while they are checking out. Use a single picture or a slideshow of multiple pictures.
• Customer display can be marked as closed while still giving employee control to work in Vend.

Modify Vend Features to protect settings and private info:
• Hide Cashier Daily and Monthly sales so employees cannot see private data
• Hide the Dashboard Report Button
• Hide the Reports Button
• Hide the Cash Management Button
• Hide the Open/Close Drawer Button
• Hide the Setup Button
• Hide the Help Button
• Set custom height of Vend Quick Item buttons to allow more space for names or more buttons on page without scrolling
• Adjust the font size of Quick Item buttons
• Hide the folder item count on Quick Item folders to allow longer descriptions or shorter buttons
• Disable clicking to modify line item % discounts
• Select all text in inputs fields upon click to make entering new numbers easy

Add New Features to Vend:
• Show change due/sale total from last transaction on main screen in case you closed payment window before counting out change
• Quick pay buttons on main screen to enter most likely payment amounts in the payment field
• Employee panel buttons to:
• Toggle fullscreen display
• Create a customer display
• Mark customer display as closed while still giving functionality to employee
• Open cash drawer without sale (No Sale)
• Admin or Managers to override hidden native Vend buttons
• Go fullscreen automatically when you load Vend
• Add promo codes to transaction notes automatically for tracking in Vend transaction CSV files

Vextend is free to install with no subscriptions or fees. Vextend is a private extension and is not created by, affiliated with, or supported by Vend POS.
