Marco, New web pos application looks great, haven't had much chance to look in detail but well done for getting it started as I'm sure it will gain more support now you've got it rolling.

Even though reasonably familiar with the XUI POS I did find the navigation and menus on the right very confusing in the new web pos. Quite often I got lost and had to rely on old knowledge to best work out the next step. It made me think now would be a good time to make sure that area was much more user friendly, maybe a top row of buttons that remain constant and others separated to be clear, or even processes like payment can take over more of the screen, we don't have to keep it all on the right for every stage. > > - PAYMENT SET REF. button is not working correctly because it sets now only > the first payment of the cart. > I would like to change this form that shows you all the used payment of the > cart > and then selecting one of this you can set the payment reference. again UI comments as above to make it easier to handle multi payments types etc. > > - To support the POS devices from the new web pos component I would like to > support the new emerging > XMLPOS standard interface introduced this year into UNIFIED POS 1.12. > It will be possible to comunicate with POS devices directly from the > browser > sending xml messages to the devices (probably via HTTP). > > You can take a look at this link > (http://www.nrf-arts.org/UnifiedPOS/default.htm) to see the details. Interesting and certainly something OFBiz POS would need to progress at some stage. But I've only had a glance over it so not entirely sure how it all fits together and just have more questions like where does the driver sit (must still be one surely), how do you configure the terminals, how do you register return events from devices.... >From a time and effort perspective it might be worth first considering the re-use of existing code route if it can be done via an applet or something. It might enable you deliver a functioning web pos module sooner using a reasonably well tested code base, and it won't all be wasted effort if it's later replaced with the XMLPOS because parts like terminal configuration must be needed for both routes.
