I want to second BJs suggestion. After a great deal of effort, I found that you can easily get more functionality using ftl/widget code instead of swing code. I wrote complete swing applications for accounts recievable, sales order entry, automated purchasing and others. As I rolled these out, I got requests for more functionality that was already in the existing web based code.
Consequently, I scrapped all the swing based code except the sales order entry and one small bit of the AR code. You can find the core swing based code for the sales order module here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1383 It uses the same interface to Ofbiz code as the POS but uses Netbeans to manage the GUI.

Once you get familiar with ofbiz you will see why. Also take a look at widgets.
