do it.
How many orders do they receive a month/day etc. Is it even worth pursuing
for them. I mean if they get 1 order a day then I doubt it, but if they get
several hundred then that's a different story. Anyone using Retail Pro is
probably a small mom and pop or small business anyway so I doubt they would
have the money to invest in much.

Subject: Re: ecommerce store and real store inventory
I have a client who uses 'Retail Pro' for their point of sale system in the
store(s) - every night a script runs to export the inventory data of the
physical store to the website- and the ecommerce website runs off of the
exported inventory data.
So obviously the online store isn't real time with the inventory in the
physical store, but it works for them.
The problem is that orders from the website then need to be keyed back into
the retail pro system to keep the inventory consistent.
I heard that 'Retail Pro' was coming out with a point of sale system that
was ODBC compliant- so you could read and write to it... but I don't know
if its out or not. The system my client uses is not ODBC.
