INTEGRATING POS SYSTEMS IN SUPPLY CHAIN PROCESS
Galexis opens its ERP system functinality to the POS (Point Of Sales) systems in order to optimize the whole supply chain
process.
For each function two messages are defined. One for request and one for
response. Messages are exchanged in XML format that is specified using schema definitions.
Messages are exchanged using one of the following options:
- HTTPS (SSL) protocol POST requests with content type "text/xml". The content of the request is XML message itself, no envelopes are used
- HTTPS (SSL) protocol POST of a SOAP Request. Functions are described using WSDL definitions.
Tags and attributes of all messages are all in english. Values of the attributes are in the user's (customers) language.
If you are allready done programing and would try to send your XML request, you can send it to our test system https://test.e-galexis.com/testPOS/ .
Tools for transmission
With only few lines of code one can send and receive XML over HTTP. Our examples using different programming languages are here to help you to understand the principle.
CURL is another possibility. It is a command line tool that can do HTTP communication for you. You can get it at http://curl.haxx.se/ . Command line to transmit and receive data would be something like this: curl -L -v --cacert curl-ca-bundle.crt -d @file.xml https://test.e-galexis.com/testPOS/ > answer.xml
