Hi, I had hoped I could export the POS data and get a more or less empty XML dump which I could edit, but unfortunately empty tables do not export. I guess the next step is to put sample data back in, export, and edit the sample data XML files, drop sample data, re-seed, and then import the edited files. I'll probably be adding a bug report too since there is no obvious way to add POS terminals (WebPOS, not older POS).

Data can be added and managed through the WEBTOOLS component.
