Microsoft Point of Service (POS) for .NET v1.14 is now available, and with it comes a set of .NET class libraries that makes it possible to write .NET applications for the retail and hospitality industry.
POS for .NET v1.14 allows sales associates in training to try using chip and pin peripherals (those magnetic readers you see at store checkout counters) without impacting actual transactions. POS for .NET also provides more symbols for POS printers and barcode scanners; and provides fiscal printer data in several different formats, which makes it easier to review daily transactions.
POS for .NET also adds POS objects for retail peripherals — such as smartcards, motion sensors and fiscal printers — to support a larger set of peripherals, so developers can spend less time writing code to create these objects and more time building and delivering memorable experiences.
Head over to the Windows Embedded blog to find out more about POS for .NET v1.14.
