`sale_ID` field is a unique ID generated by the PoS system. +A timestamp for the event is stored in the `time` field. +The `amount` field refers to the value of the item(s) to be sold (in cents). +The `item_ID` field is a unique identifier for each item type, and can be used to retrieve more information about the item from _HyperM_'s stock control system. +The `quantity` field refers to the quantity of the item to be sold. +The `assistant_ID` field is a unique identifier for the PoS operator, and can be used to retrieve more information about the operator from the _HyperM_'s personnel system. +Since __HyperM__ has many branches the `branch_ID` identifies the shop. +The `notes` field contains arbitrary notes about the sale. + + +=== Sales Decision Event +After a `SALE_INPUT` event is emitted by the PoS system _HyperM_'s policy-based controlled sales checking system emits a Sale Authorization Event indicating whether the sale is authorized or denied. +The PoS system can then listen for this event before continuing with the sale. + +.Sale Authorisation Event +[width="100%",options="header"] +|==================== +|Event| Fields | Description +| SALE_AUTH | sale_ID, time,

`true` or `false` depending on whether the sale is authorized or denied. +The `message` field carries an optional message about why a sale was not authorized. +The other fields from the `SALE_INPUT` event are also included for completeness. + + +=== Stock Control: Items +_HyperM_ maintains information about each item for sale in a database table called `ITEMS`. + +.Items Database
