What is a POS system? | Explanation of terms and trends in POS registers - Posco Co., Ltd.

ポスコ ポスコ 東京
POS refers to a high-function cash register system with aggregation capabilities. POS is an abbreviation for "Point of Sale" in English, which literally means "point of sale," and the POS system is referred to as point of sale information management. A POS register reads the barcode information attached to the price tag of purchased items using a scanner at the moment of sale, displays the department, product name, price, and other details on the screen, prints them on a receipt, and simultaneously records various information in the memory of the cash register. For example, in the retail industry, the role of the POS register encompasses important functions ranging from the settlement processing at the point of sale to product, inventory, and customer management. The now indispensable POS register was imported from the United States in the 1890s and widely introduced in department stores in the 1910s, evolving uniquely as the importance of IT in business has increased. For instance, in Japan, automatic change dispensers that manage the mainstream cash payments have become fully integrated with POS registers as part of the POS system in the retail industry, including supermarkets and drugstores. It has now expanded its reach to the medical industry, including hospitals and clinics.

We want to eliminate paper-based reimbursement and application processes. The checking work that used to take three days can now be completed in one day.

  • NEW
  • OTHER

An article has been published regarding the case study of the introduction of the expense reimbursement system "Rakuraku Seisan" and the attendance management system "KING OF TIME" at Racam Co., Ltd. ~ In the case of Racam ~ Before the introduction of "Rakuraku Seisan," applications were paper-based. One person was responsible for checking the contents for about 100 individuals using a calculator. Since actually using the system, various tasks related to determining who to pay and how much have been reduced, and it has become possible to import the crucial journal entries. Most importantly, the elimination of the need to research transportation costs one by one has been a significant improvement. The successful implementation of the attendance management system was made possible by the generous support provided by iBP. [Case Overview (Partial)] ■ Challenges Before Implementation - Wanted to eliminate paper-based reimbursement and application processes ■ Key Points of Implementation - High recognition of Rakuraku Seisan - With iBP, both expense reimbursement and attendance management can be handled together *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Case Study 003: Verbalizing the "somewhat inconvenient" issues faced by HR and General Affairs. A case of organizing challenges and proposals. Client in the home care industry with approximately 700 employees.

  • NEW
  • OTHER

"Somewhat inconvenient" can quickly transform into "cost" and "risk" due to an increase in the number of employees or an expansion of business scope. What we are introducing this time is the process of a home care industry company with around 700 employees verbalizing their frustrations regarding payroll operations and considering the optimal system configuration. When we verbalize "somewhat inconvenient"... 1) The support quality of the payroll system being used is poor, causing significant stress. 2) The number of employees has been on the rise in recent years, raising concerns about running costs due to the pay-per-use system. 3) Macros are being used for data integration with a separate system. 4) We want to make backend processes like payroll payment reports easier. Information from iBP What is important here is to decide how to handle the multiple issues that have arisen, which is the "prioritization of tasks." You can read more without needing to input personal information. Please visit the iBusiness Partners column page! https://ibp-column.sfsite.me/36302

  • NEW

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I am worried about the possibility of colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as pedestrian collisions and vehicle-to-vehicle accidents. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures at various sites and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *When using the exit warning system, we kindly ask that you arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breaker, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. [Contents Included] ○ Exit Warning System Configuration ○ Comparison Table of Exit Warning Sensors ○ Four Modes ○ Wide Range of Applications ○ Customer Feedback ○ Appearance Diagram / Specifications ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
