Hi,
I've been asked to develop some software that needs to integrate with MICROS but I can't seem to find out whether there is an API that is already available or whether I would need to interrogate the MICROS database directly. I don't need to do anything too complex, basically I need the following functions
- retrieval of a bill including item breakdown
- simple modification of a bill, ie removal of an item from the bill or add a discount
- update MICROS to flag that the bill has been paid, or part paid, for example half on a credit card, half cash - or is this just a case of adding a credit to the bill in the same was as a discount above?
Does an API exist offering this functionality? If not, i sthe database structure straightforward enough to pull out this data easily and make the updates I listed above? And finally, if I had to do this directly in the database, would there be likely to be issues with MICROS support due to the fact that 3rd party software has directly modified the database?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
