Well, I've changed my idea! I'm looking for a web-programmer as a
partner now.
I am willing to pay a small amount for it, but he (we) can sell this
product worldwide and test it in my shops.
I want to make a point-of-sale Portal site that will enable any store
to securly give in stock, make sales, inventory and even orders and
transfers to other stores of his allowed group. There is a very large
request around this here in Belgium, but I guess also worldwide
because I didn't find it anywhere!
This website will need a very, very large database or be able to start
another databases for each new loged-in (and paid) customer. There is
a lot to earn even asking very low prices!
An Example:
- Surfing the web I find this interesting online point-of-sale site.
I just need to log in and I can start selling my products, for 1 free
month.
After that I can pay a small amount that represents the sales I make
(maybe 0.1% or just 1 penny for each product sold) or with a
bank-deposit done a few days before with a special referance (there
are a lot of countries that don't have that much creditcards in use)
- Then I go to "sales" I type in the product name or barcode(could use
a keyboard switched barcode-reader) Because it ain't in stock, the
program asks for the name, price and amount in stock and updates the
stock.
The received money has been entered, ticket printed on standard
printer and I've made my first sale with it!!!
- Then some day I read in the hole stock entering the price and
product names for each not already existing read barcode. And now I
have all the products in my online database!!! I can even upload a
ASCII or Excel file lay out just the way the website askes it.
- Inventory with placing a 20 meters cable between the barcode-reader
and keyboard-switch. Using a barcode-card for entering the amount of 1
product before the product is being scanned. The PC gives sounds or
even speaks for what is happening. So there is only 1 input field that
automaticly sees if it is an instruction, barcode or amount. So I've
got now my entier stock online!!!
- I can go to logs and have sales charts and statistics.
- I can download all my data(stock,sales,transfers,...) in a textfile
or excel sheet.
-I can add other stores that can have a look in my stock and make/ask
transfers and orders.
-I can add logins with passes for employees.
-....

Hi,
We are from Belgium and are looking for someone who could write us a
point-of-sale (POS) software for a DVD-film shop.
I like it to be in MS-Access with some VBA or just VB.
The barcodes will be read through the keyboard interface, so there
want be work to do on serial scanners.
1) Inventary: reading and comparing the present stock just with one
input field
This way we can insert a 20 meters serial cable between PC and
BC-reader, read in the stock without using the keyboard. If the read
is a 13 digits number it means +1 piece in stock. Otherwise it is an
instruction like cancel last read, stock minus or last product amount.
example:
-reading "7321933235912" product "A" found and added 1 in stock
-reading "2"
-reading "5"
-reading "4687984546578" next product read -> last product "A" has +25
in stock.
2) Sales: looking up products with barcode or a piece of the title
1 VAT (BTW) 21%
-seperate couting of cash and credit cards.
-posibility to type in name, adres, vat-number and telefoon-number to
enable to print out a numbered invoice on a standard printer.
-ticket also on normal sized printer with a commercial ad read in as a
seperate file(tif, jpg, ...)
3) End of day: overview of sales and recieved payments
and much more later on....
We would pay you for every step that is working in the program. Though
we are only offering around 1000 euro or dollars!
Thank you.
