hehe ok this is way over my head should do more googling i guess. Maybe its not an API needed? but this is a quick breakdown of what im trying to achieve.
Basically i was looking to take an online order lets say of 3 items it email a print server and print 2 sheets. then to produce a bar code/number code to then input that into epos to then deduct the 3 items from the stock system.

I knew this was going to be way over my head but though if i started to learn this kind of thing then i may be able to explain/help make something.
