I'm a Comp Sci student that works a lot with Access/VBA/SQL for my part time job at my uni.
I would like to make my parents a Point of Sale application using Access for their small take out food business, but I'm worried about a few things.
I was wondering if someone with some kind of experience in POS systems would be able to help me out with these questions:
1. How well does Access "pair up" with devices such as a receipt printer and a cash till to connect to?
2. Are there any sort of Tax/legal issues with me creating this for for my parents (since I would be making the receipts and keeping track of the orders in the database).
3. Is this something realistically doable? I mean I've completed quite a few projects with access forms with a lot of coding in VBA. I've never tried to make a POS system completely though.
Thank you for your time.
