The SDK will allow you to "code" directly with QuickBooks so you can
access and insert data. Additionally, there are also a host of 3rd
party applications which might be a helpful at
www.marketplace.intuit.com.
Some will make the coding easier (see the tools & utilities section)
plus you might get lucky and find an application that already
integrates the third party POS (see ecommerce section).
