The Point-of-Sale System can be used in small to medium scale supermarkets for its inventory and sales operations. The system is done in a PC-based environment. The point-of-Sale System has three components, namely, data communication, cash register and the application program. The data communication serves as the link between the computer and the cash register through an RS232 cable. The cash register is where the sales transactions are accepted. These sales transactions, on the other hand, is processed by an application program to produce inventory and sales information to update the company regarding its operations.
