Description
Electronic cash registers used for computer-based processing of sales transactions. The POS terminal identifies each item of goods from its bar code and then automatically records the sale and updates the computer-based inventory records. These terminals permit the use of perpetual inventory systems in many businesses that sell a high volume of low-cost goods.
