Abstract

To increase the agility of the chain store operation with the information technology, the communication system is proposed with the mobile networks to link the headquarters with the chain stores distributed widely. In the store, the mobile is attached to POS with USB, and the data exchanging service is developed on the mobile to report the sale data and to download the updated data. At the headquarters, a communication server is established to provide the data service for the mobiles with the customized web service methods. In this way, the sale data of all the chain stores can be gathered in time, which is the groundwork for the business intelligence system.
