I will assume that you are an AS/400 client.  You may want to look into a
product called Supermarket from IBM.  Here are some highlights from some of it's
literature.  Other BPCS clients have selected this product for use with BPCS,
although I do not know where they are with the implementation of the solution.
Tthe interface is custom and you'll need SMG's or some tools for integration,
but it is worth consideration.

Highlights
Want a supermarket solution that will help you improve operations and control
expenses at the same time? One that gives you complete data capture
capabilities- with sales information you can rely on? A software program that's
flexible enough to be customized to your business.
Check out IBM 4680-4690 Supermarket Application. This powerful software package
is specialty designed to handle the extremely high number of transactions
carried out by the typical supermarket. And it backs you up with detailed,
accurate reports. Advanced accounting features and inventory control
capabilities based on all the data captures at the checkout are yours with
4680-4690 Supermarket Application, too.

Speedy front-end operations

The IBM Supermarket Application has the right features to help optimize profits
by assuring that checkout counters are performing up to speed. Among other
things, the application can process up to an impressive 90,000 items per hour-
providing price lookups in less than a second. And it can help cashiers handle
customer payment transactions faster than ever-including payments in coupons,
food stamps, debit and credit, and more. The Supermarket Application can verify
checks against an in-store negative or positive check authorization file, or
against centrally maintained check authorization files. It can also track and
regulate the number of checks written by any given customer in a defined period
of time.

IBM has other offerings too, this one happens to support multiple languages
etc...  Hope this helps.

I would be interested if any such package is available. We too are looking for
Point of Sale systems.

BPCS 6.1 Mixmode AS400

Does anyone know of a good bolton package for BPCS for Retail Point of
Sales.  I'm not looking for an ecommerce solution for this but a product
that will allow entry of an order via a Retail Point of Sale type system
that will integrate the order into BPCS seamlessly.  My company operates a
Retail Store and I would like to allow them to take counter sales, enter
the order in to the bolton software, and then feed the approved order into
BPCS.

Thanks
