Introduction

This document outlines the factors influencing the sizing of the following applications: POS Client

POS Thin Client

• POS Thin Client operates in the store and contacts the central POS Service for each function call.
• It is just the UI of the POS Client and does not have its own business logic, master data, or any other persistence.
• It contacts all connected POS hardware directly.
• The receipt is printed directly on POS Thin Client.

POS Full Client

• POS Full Client combines POS Thin Client and POS Service into one application with local persistence.
• This application also processes all master data changes to keep the local master data repository up-to-date.
• It stores POS transactions in the local database and replicates them to the central server in the background.
• POS hardware is integrated directly into the POS.
