RMS Store Ops should have a Related Items Tab in Item properties

RMS Store Ops 1.3



There should be a tab in item properties to set-up related items. This would be very useful if you're using software, like Nitrosell, to sync RMS with your webstore.

Hello Akber,

Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, the Tag along is not what I'm looking for, although it is similar. The Tag along feature allows you to set-up one item that is automatically included with another items when entered at POS. Related items could be several items that would commonly be purchased together. I.e. if you sold an I-Pod, the related items would be a Docking Station, Skins, a Car Charger etc. The Item Message field can also be used to remind the cashier about other items the consumer might want. Neither of these fields would be very useful when populating a webstore with RMS items.

Hi Vic, I do agree what you said that there is no such thing, actually RMS is not base on full web solution however you can develop such add-on tools which can directly integered with RMS. If I were at your position I would have done my own development and integred my web app with RMS.

You might be able to use Substitutes for this purpose if you aren't already using them for their intended purpose. It's just a link from a given item to one or more other items. The context of those links could be different in your web app than in the POS interface.

Nitrosell's PAM application lets you add additional fields to the item properties, but I don't believe there is a way to add a list. I guess that you could use a comma separated list to store the links, but then they would have to be resolved on the web side.
