Ha, ha, you real funny guy, you would not believe how many times I  
have had this discussion.  These are the magic words that are in your  
pERP Overview statement, (perp_pos, A point of sale system.  
Integrating another, existing open-source POS would be good.) Even  
thou it has not been developed yet, it was one of the big things that  
got me to take on this install. I have worked with POS a lot, I had a  
network years ago using ms-dos, novell, and dbase, 4 workstations and  
a server.  When it comes time for pos and inventory control for the  
retail, I will have a lot to add.  I have tried every opensource pos  
system out there that runs on php, mysql.  pERP is way more then I  
need, but it is the only one that I think will do the multi location,  
multi currency, and multi accounting that I need.

POS will be a whole new discussion, lets see what we can do to get  
this other stuff working first, right now I can not even add a selling  
price to a stock item.  I will be watching svn for a fix.
