This was a client piece of work conducted for a local business based in the centre of Leeds.The project was to create a WPF based retail point of sale system which could be used in the retail outlet in Leeds, and also rolled out to other stores for the comanys upcoming expansion. The app handles the point of sale in stores, as well as stock/product management, order management and a full MI suite.The final product saw a client application created which interacts easily with all aspects of a retail counter from the barcode scanner, thermal receipt printer to the shop cash drawer. The application also includes support for touch screen monitors as/when the functionality is required.The major selling point of this final product is that the database created for application is hosted in the cloud, so it can be connected to from all of the company stores, as well as being able to run the backend for the companys CMS website, which will be our next project for the client. The application uses WCF secure services, which can be reused for web service calls on the CMS site.Technologies: WPF, WCF, Entity Framework, SQL Server 2008, MS POS
