I would also be interested in looking at any good Point of Sale system that
is PC based since some of this solution may be in a remote traveling
trailer.
The BPCS interface will then be reviewed as needed.

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.

BPCS 6.1 Mixmode

Anyone using a good Point of Sale system with BPCS.  I have a need to setup
a POS system and interfacing with BPCS is still being considered but may
not be that critical.
