Proposed Solution:

Troubleshooting steps:

1. Compare the replication files with other working Offline POS.

2. We checked the hub URL by running in the browser given in iVendReplicationWinService.exe.config file at the below path.

C:\Program Files (x86)\CitiXsys\iVend Retail\iVendReplicationWinService

3. We then compared the iVendReplicationWinService.exe.config file with the working Offline POS and found the difference.
