Trying to design Point of Sale page

hi gurus,
I am trying to design an EPOS page. I have a field which will hold barcode value.
Using this value, I will retrieve item name, selling price and other necessary info from table and will display these value somewhere on page. I want to have item name, quantity and amount fields to be inserted in some kind of editable multi row container but i am not sure which container will serve the purpose like in Forms Developer, it could be handled in tabular form but i do not know what is the right choice here and how can i add data to that container?
advice required

Nadeem,
You don't really need a container, you are just displaying a report. I've written a couple of EPOS systems (PowerBuilder and C++) and you're basically going to do a submit when the UPC field is changed. That is the simple part, things like inventory control, returns, breakage, security, etc are the hard parts. You are also going to have to deal with UPC's that are not in the database and manual price entries. You might want to go out on www.sourceforge.net and search for EPOS there, it will allow you to see how others handled all these problems and save you from re-inventing the wheel.

  • How can I let breeders update their sale pages on their own?

    I am using GoLive CS and currently have interest in a site design from a few different animal breeders. I have already built and currently maintain a site for one breeder who lists her for-sale animals online, and I update the list whenever she needs it. I would like to pursue this segment of the market but would really like to find a way to allow the client to update the sales pages instantly instead of having to wait the standard "1-3 business days" for me to do it, and turning that portion of the site over to them would really streamline my process and allow me to take on more clients. I'm not a code expert, but I have a general knowledge and have designed some very functional sites.
    My question is, can someone at least get me started on where to look to learn how to make this possible? I'm not even sure where to begin but I am willing to learn. I want clients to be able to add names, descriptions, and photos for each listing. I currently use GoLive CS but am itching to upgrade since it's pretty much a dinosaur at this point... so if upgrading will make this easier, feel free to suggest it. Any comments are greatly appreciated!
    Here is a link to the site I currently maintain, so you have an idea of what the listings will include.

    Honestly, I would use some sort of shopping cart software that you can add to your site design.  I've used ecommercetemplates.com 's program in the past and loved it.

  • Acrobat Designer -Show/Hide/Delete Pages

    I have a PDF that is built in Designer 7.0.41126, it has 3 static data capture pages and 6 dynamic pages that are set to hidden at the begining of the process. Once the user captures the data they click a generate button and the script makes the pages visible based on the data entered. This works great and based on the data the document can grow up to 16 pages.
    The first issue I have is that if you save the document in Acrobat 7 Professional (not reader) and re-open the document the dyanamic pages are hidden again and you only have the 3 static pages. Is there anyway to make the dynamic pages stay visible?
    The second issue is that I want to be able to delete the data capture pages so the user can send the document to a customer without the data capture pages. I read that the javascript funtion deletepages does not work in a Designer 7 document. Any suggestions? The customer will more then likely be using reader to view the document.
    Thanks in advance.

    > and involve programatically manipulating the data DOM.
    I have gotten to the point were I want to manipulate the DOM.  I want to delete large portions during runtime with javascript.  Am I trying to delete "XML Source" or DOM (I'm not sure).  Using the presence attribute is not sufficient any more because the file has gotten so large, the whole point of "deleting" pages is to shrink the file size. 
    I understand how to read XML source, and I understand JavaScript.  I don't even know if what I want to do is possible.  In a form with the xml source below, can I delete the subform node and all its children with javascript at runtime?

    I prepare chronologies in word, and I am trying to do the same in pages using tables and cells. But sometimes I need a cell to wrap onto the next page because the contents are bigger than the page or the space left on the page,  but I can't work out how to do it - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    As far as I know, Apple is free to choose to offer this or that feature.
    They never said that they want to clone Word or even compete with it.
    Differences between tables in both worlds are numerous.
    In Pages (or Numbers)
    - we can't sort a single column
    - we can't sort by row
    - we can't insert or remove a single cell
    - a cell can't cross pages boundaries
    If I understand well these design choices match :

    Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
    Apply the 80 Percent Solution
    During the design process, if you discover problems with your product design, you might consider applying the 80 percent solution‚ that is, designing your software to meet the needs of at least 80 percent of your users. This type of design typically favors simpler, more elegant approaches to problems.
    If you try to design for the 20 percent of your target audience who are power users, your design may not be usable by the other 80 percent of users. Even though that smaller group of power users is likely to have good ideas for features, the majority of your user base may not think in the same way. Involving a broad range of users in your design process can help you find the 80 percent solution.

    Hi RH,
    Because of the time crunch I am not able to debug my system for your issue but I will tell you the steps how to find what required field is missing in your documet sent to your R/3 system.
    In transaction SMQS deregistor your R/3 system by pressing the button "Deregistration" then create a BP in CRM and save the data. Come back to the transaction SMQS again select your R/3 system and press the button QRFC monitor. Here you will find the queue related to your. Double click on it twice and then press the button Debug LUV. You will reach to the R/3 system ( make sure that the RFC user is dialog user in R/3 system).
    but the break point at the statement " call transaction" and press F8. Here you change the value of mode from "N" to "A" in debugger and then press F8 again. by doing this you will get the input screen. Just keep on pressing enter and the system will fill the values. Here you will find what is the required entry missing.
    Do not forget to registor the R/3 system again in transaction SMQS once you are done with you debugging.
    I have tried my best to explain the steps. If you get confused at any point of time do let me know.

    Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
    However ....  I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
    Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try.

  • Hyperlink to a specific point on a page

    I am trying to insert a hyperlink which jumps to a specific point on a page. The way I would like it to work is so that I have a list of headings - an index - and when you click on a heading it jumps to that particular chapter in a text.
    So far I have only been able to get a hyperlink to jump to the top of a page.

  • How to locate the first insertion point on every page?

    I need to paste some same anchored objects on every page for exporting RTF format.
    So I need to locate the first insertion point on every page.
    Then, I use the code below (make a simple example):
    for(i = 0; i < app.documents[0].pages.length; i ++){
         app.select(app.documents[0].pages[i].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0])
         app.paste()
    But when a file has a very long table spread over several pages, the location operation will select the insertion point before the table --- the starting point of the table.
    For instance, a table start on page 3 and end on page 10
    app.documents[0].pages[4~10].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0])  can't select the first insertion point from page 4 to page 10. (In terms of scripting, the insertion point exists before the very long table starting on page 3.)
    How can I solve the problem? Thanks in advance.

    I dont know exactly what you are trying to do but you can try this. If you have table which runs trough multiple pages, you can first divede this tabel, that cells on separate pages would represent stand alone table. Than you can fit textframe to this table. When addressing indention poin you will get right position.
    In your case when table start at 3rd and ends on 10th page you would get 8 tables in 8 textframes on its own page. If textframes are linked and table is smaller than textframe you will have problem when addressing first insertion point on 4th or any other page. That why you should fit textframe to table:
    var bl=app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0].baseline
    var tf=app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0];
    var gb=[tf.geometricBounds[0],tf.geometricBounds[1],bl,tf.geometricBounds[3]];
    tf.geometricBounds=gb;
    Now when you set
    app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[0] you will get position before table or
    app.activeDocument.pages[1].textFrames[0].insertionPoints[-1] you will get position after table

  • Is it possible to pin my navigation to the top of the browser until I reach a certain point on the page and then let it continue to scroll normally?

    I'm trying to get my navigation to pin to the top of the browser while other scroll effects are taking place, then when it reaches a certain point on the page, I want the navigation to continue moving up and off the screen to allow for the footer to come in.  Is this possible?

    Merci Éric de me revenir en français, je l'apprécie beaucoup. Je ne veux conserver que le mouvement de haut en bas et de bas en haut. Je ne vois pas l'utilité du mouvement horizontale (gauche-droite, droite-gauche) et pire encore, par mégarde je fais trop souvent bouger ainsi mon texte et cela m'embête, même me dérange  beaucoup. Même que cela me donne même mal au coeur hahahahahaha!
    Par contre, ma souris précédente avait le mouvement de défilement du haut en bas et bas en haut et cela par contre m'est très utile. Je voudrais donc savoir s'il existe un moyen de stopper le mouvement de côté mais conserver tout de même la fonction du mouvement haut-bas et bas-haut avec le simple toucher de la souris. Suis-je plus clair? Disons que c'est plus aisé pour moi en français. merci à toi

  • Whats the point of having page thumbnail view in Pages 5...

    ...when it has absolutely 0 functionality?!?!?!?
    Can't copy/paste, can't select multiple pages, can't rearrange, can't insert...seriously...other than being able to delete and navigate, its been stripped of its most important functions.

    I am trying to track down your error -1712 but am unable to reproduce it, nor find any references to it.
    We are recommending using Pages '09 v4.3 for now.
    Pages 5 is not just short of features it is also hazardous to use.
    A number of users have reached the point where their Pages 5.1 documents will not open and any attempts to recover text form those documents only produces hexadecimal gibberish.

  • Good add-ons for retail, point of sale, wholesale and distrbution industry

    Hi,
    Which are the good add-ons available in India for retail, point of sale billing, wholesale and distribution industry?
    Typical requirements are:
    1. Point of sale billing
    2. Barcoding - if same item is scanned twice, the qty of the item should increase, rather than creating a new item row.
    3. Combo Offers - Buy 1 Get 1 Free, etc.
    4. Repacking of items - buy in bulk and sell in loose
    5. Support for multiple MRP for same item, example an item with old MRP is in stock, and the same item with new MRP is also in stock
    6. Loyalty Point, Membership schemes
    7. Multiple Payment Modes in same Invoice: Coupons, Card, Cash, etc.
    The add-on should work on B1 Starter Pack licenses.
    The customer operates small sized departmental stores from 3 locations, with 1 or 2 billing counters in each location, and has limited budget due to which we are suggesting B1 starter pack to him.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Please refer license guide for starter package: (page 10)

    Hi @kots 
    I suspect your question would be better answered in the HP Enterprise Business Community, as your HP Printer is a commercial model.
    My technical expertise is with consumer products and software, I am sure the commercial folks would be happy to help if you re-post your question for them to answer. The HP Enterprise Business Community is an HP Forum designed for the Commercial and Enterprise customers to help one another. I am sure you will find some HP folks there to help too.
    Click here to view the Printing and Digital Imaging. When the page opens you will see the option to 'Log in' or 'Register Now' on the right. The commercial forums are separate from the consumer boards, thus you will need to register if you don't already have a commercial account.
