POS in FileMaker January 11, 2007

Posted by Dan Stuchbury in : Business In General, FileMaker Pro , trackback

It is very possible, I don’t doubt, and has probably been done elsewhere, but I wonder how commercially viable it would be to develop a POS system, in FileMaker Pro?  I can see how it’d work, or at least the basics of it, in my mind, but I’m not going to put hours of work into something that isn’t going to generate sufficient return.

It would be great to talk to an independent retail business about their views on such a system, and perhaps enlist their opinions throughout development, probably in exchange for a complimentary license.  One such business cones to mind, but I’m not sure about their willingness to adopt new technology - not that ePOS is new, but to them, it would be!

I’ll put some initial thoughts together, and see how it pans out.  I won’t be able to share these thoughts here, to protect our intellectual property, but I will share the decisions made as a result.
