POS through Citrix
- Hi all,
I have been in a team developing a cash register system using Microsoft POS for .Net. So far so good, the devices work properly.
However, now we're considering launching the application through Citrix. The problem here is how do we let the application know about local environment and pick up the local OPOS devices?
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

- Hi,
I haven't done this myself but Pos .Net supports a feature called 'Device Redirection' that is specifically for this situation. I understand it works with Microsoft Terminal Server, I do not know if it works with Citrix but would hope that it does.
The Pos .Net SDK should contain help on the matter (I haven't got it handy now to check), but the online help does mention how to set it up here;
