Guest Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 I am struggling to integrate at least some POS / EPOS features into an Multilingual (English / Chinese) osCommerce BookStore ... The Hardware involved is not a big deal, as the Barcode Readers, the terminals and other peripherals are quite clever and can be easily attached. There is no OSC - POS backend available, however, we have already promising contributions like MOECTOE ( http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1911) Maybe, we can use a trick to make OSC run at least some features of a POS : We could install OSC-Clients in the shops and have the sales persons logon like other users. Whenever a customer comes with the goods to the counter, the sales guys input the data and checkout with "cash on delivery" or whatever. Both, the Internet-Users and the sales people will be able to connect equally to the system and those groups will be identified in the OSC administration tools. However, I don't know yet whether there are any hiccups and this is why I am asking you for help. One possible problem might be the transmission-speed required for the POS-like transactions, - but we could at least try to do our best to tune the POS-Terminals (turn off pictures, use cache, high speed lines, etc.) :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
