    Summarized Quantity or Similar Field

    Hey guys! I am really close to making my project work! I just need to know the location of a field I can use to determine quantity sold of a particular item, or any way i can tell that an item has been sold and then summarize. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    nope, never worked in this area before. I was just reading the SIM documentation and really just need a starting point. I would really appreciate any help you can give. Thanks!

    Hmmm, all interesting ideas. I'm trying to make this as simple as possible, with as little communication as possible. I just need to get a working proof of concept up and then we can bring in someone who actually knows this environment and add on all sorts of other features. THIS, however is the...

    I'm ok, with it updating every minute, or so, I just want the transaction to take place in one SIM script. I actually can communicate with my server via ODBC right now, so that's not an issue, but I was planning on letting the server connect to my SQL server. I'm leaning towards MySQL, due to...

    Hey, great info on those pages. That is awesome. Thanks for the upload! Two questions: First, is this feasible? 1. Put a menu item into the database 2. Call it obj_num 200850 and so when that item is ordered in the POS touchscreen it triggers a SIM script which will: 2a. Open an odbc...

    ftp://x-tremeteam.dnsalias.net anonymous/email@email.com So there is a way to trigger an event after each time an order is placed into a workstation? I'm just thinking, onevent -> export: mi_seq. I can increment the total on my end. Thanks!

    Awesome. Thanks! I'll send FTP info in a few. Got to extract my anon FTP login info from one of my apps (don't remember it off hand). As far as transactional data, I was up all night figuring this out. Here's what would be perfect: Either every 30 seconds or a minute, the server spits out a...

    Ok, so I finally have a remote machine connecting to the database and exporting data so I can get to the database part of what i'm doing. This is great! I still need a much more permanent solution, BUT I can't seem to find transactional data in the database. I need to know when something gets...

    Yeah, i can't find this CAL stuff anywhere. On the server, there's a CAL directory but it doesn't have an exe. Just some scripts for preparing for installation. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Oh, i don't think it needs to be set up as a node. i was just thinking out loud. I have no real clue. I do need to have my app server on a different box, by requirement, however, so i need to talk to the DB over IP using ODBC, preferrably. If i use SIM, i can probably script out something that...

    MSDHosts

    K Great! That explains that. So I;m reading the CAL docs. there's no installer for this? It just tells me how to make a setup.bat file for updating. Were are the installation files themselves?

    Hey, i've been doing some research and see that if i run NetSetup, I should be able to connect to the server via ODBC. I see NetSetup should be in C:\Program Files\Micros\Netsetup, but its not there. Thanks!

    Is there anywhere I can get more information on a SIM interface? I'm not familiar with the term. I've got my app server built now and I'm trying to just create an ODBC connection to the database, but that isn't work. I should be able to do anything I want to do once I get that working. Any thoughts?

    Ok, the more I think about this, the sillier I feel. Obviously, the terminals and touch screens in the restaurant are using IP to connect to the database somehow, right? So I should be able to add my app server as a node or something and allow access via ODBC to the database, right? That would...

    MSDHosts

    Yeah, I think you're right. I'll have to check with him tonight. In the mean time, I was checking on the database that si there. Blank or not, the fields and tables I need to get are are there. The first thing I noticed is that i can't create an ODBC connection to the SQL server unless I'm...

    Well, it says version 4.0 GR (Build 4.0.8.312). These are the CDs he gave me. Is there a later version? I know he told me his server was 4.0. I tried to run the update app, but I got internet failure. *shrug*

    OK, so your help has gottem me this far and I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, I'm at another stopping point. I finally got to the point of getting the DB restored. Everything seemed to work alright, but when I bring up the POSCFG, the only things in there are the things you had me create...

    OMG, your sledgehammer approach worked! I'm in! If course, now I don't know his passwords, but hey, we're almost there. Thanks so much for the help!
