Abstract: This invention provides a system and a method for real-time checking and inputting business inventory. The business operations range from a single branch to a large chain of stores or branches. The application utilizes a hand-held web-browser based system which allows store and business operators to view and input inventory to a back-office server in real-time to assist in the management and security of businesses. The programming for the system resides in an out-of-store back office server. The hand-held device is simply a web browser with a bar code scanner. This system and method facilitates easy inventory checking for real-time theft and loss prevention.

Abstract: This invention provides a system and a method for managing a range of businesses. The business operations range from a single branch to a large chain of stores or branches. This invention relates to the managing of the points of sale (POS) with Web-based back-office systems. POS transaction engine terminals are implemented on personal computer, PC hardware using PC software with a relational database. The transaction engine architecture provides cost-effective application customization. Web-based back-office software is implemented on servers. POS and BO systems are monitored and supported via the web using protocol and open software components.

Abstract: This invention provides a system and a method for low cost video surveillance and archiving which is synchronized with point of sale (POS) transactions. There is no local storage of video at the POS. There is high speed transmission of the video out of the stores to central servers. All back office applications are browser based. The system provides for inherent video compression due to hardware and software involved with the video capture. Management can watch present or past store activity anywhere anytime via web browsers. Video records are indexed and retrieved from server memory along with corresponding transaction information.
