My brother is opening up a Nutritional Supplements business and he wnated a Computer based Point of Sale machine that would allow him to do multiple tasks.
1.Point of Sale
2.Keep Inventory / Remove from Inventory when items purchase
3.Keep Customer Information
4.Allowed special codes to be inputed for special discounts and such
5.The Use of Gift Cards / Certificates
This would be my first time setting up one of these machines, I have no idea as to what type of software to consider looking into, I have done some searches and found a couple titles that maybe some of you are familiar with. One being RetailICE the other being RetailSTAR...
As for hardware... what type of hardware should be ran with this type of software... I was thinking something along the lines of a p4 2.2 / 256 or 512 DDR / 40GB 5400rpm Raid 1 (mirroring) ... He would like to have an external viewer (tells whats being rung up), as well as a thermal printer of some sort or perhaps just a standard laser printer that will allow to print up the invoice / receipt.
Anyone that has experience with this I would appreciate it if you could possibly give me some pointers are at least lead me into the right direction. Thanks.
