I m installing an inventory management solution to a number of stores and my ISP is offering a very strict bandwidth restriction for my monthly access fee.

How can I restrict internet access across all applications and browsers to all websites except the domain for the inventory management system?

You will need a router that has this feature. It is fairly common on better routers. It can be under firewall features or sometimes you can use the parental control options to accomplish it.

How exactly it is done varies quite a bit from router to router. You might get lucky and be able to just put in the URL for the web site directly into the router.......unfortunately things are no longer simple. There tends to be all kinds of scripts running in the background of web pages some are critical and others are attempt to track and force advertisements.

All you can really do is block everything and then keep adding things to the allowed list.
