Their current system for running bar tabs is all paperwork and i know from experience (helped them out last friday) that it doesnt work when it gets busy. who knows how much money they are losing on busy nights because of the antiquated system. I downloaded and installed this openbravo pos that from everything i see is completely free. its really slick and seems to be very user friendly and very configurable. seeing as their size is small, its not something that would have multiple terminals and the db server in the back room or something, just one terminal. anyway, the warning is being heeded. this isnt anywhere near a done deal, its actually more of a, "this is your problem, and this is a way to fix it" type situation.
