Sync Setup Notes and Example
The example in OFBiz (in specialpurpose/pos/data/PosSyncSettings.xml) is designed for a 3 levels architecture, where a Per Store Server (PSS) is used between POS terminals and the Master Central Server (MCS).
Here is a short explanation on how it works
The following This example is based on the PosSyncSettings.xml file included in specialpurpose/pos/data. I have added . It's intended to be used where POS terminals are directly connected to a Master Central Server (MCS)
Here are some explanation and step by step instructions on setting up synchronization.
Entities used
- EntiyGroup
EntityGroup and EntityGroupEntry records are only loaded on Master Central Server (MCS).
When the "PULL" sync occurs those records are copied down to the POS terminal(s).
This allows for changes to be made on MCS and propagate down to terminal(s).
Both sets of EntityGroup records (5501 and 5506) are reused across terminal(s). No need to have separate EntityGroup records for each terminal.
