POS usage

[Rajeev Gupta-6]

Do you know if POS screens could be changed?

 

Questions:

1)      I am looking for POS specific documentation so that we know what
happens when the agents on the sales counter scans a product, will the
system recognize the product easily if the number of products are about
10000.

 

Is it too large for ofbiz POS?

 

2)      Can we integrate Keyboard keys with the POS functioning? Where is it
documented, if available.

Yes, look at files in specialpurpose/pos/screens
menu/posmain.xml for instance
and http://xui.sourceforge.net/ for more information

Yes, look for "Quantity Corrections" in http://docs.ofbiz.org/download/attachments/976/Till+Manual_V2.0.pdf.
No limit but the column size that you can customise suiting your needs

Not documented but in code, look at specialpurpose/pos/screens/includes/numeric.xml. You might be interested by an effort going on
at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1427

At large, you can find answers also in http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/POS+System
