Off-line A supermarket using LAN with 10 cashiers.

One day the server down, cashiers cannot work, customers already line up, what should you do? POSX has solution. POSX has off-line feature, all the cashiers are connected by LAN. If server down, cashiers still work as usual. If server on, the sale data will be updated to the server, nothing missing. Both server and cashiers are connected. If there are new items, enter them at server, program will distribute it to all cashiers. On the other hand, cashierss sale will update to server. So you dont have to worry if the server goes down. The supermarket will keep running well, and you still have complete data. To run off-line: Install both server.exe (MySQL) and setup.exe (POSX) to all computers Server -> Cashier Enter any new item in server, then distribute it to cashiers Cashier -> Server Transfer POS Sale to server At server, you have this icon:
