ITPEC IP April 2025 — Question 86 of 100

POS system — a point-of-sale system captures transaction information when the sale occurs.

It reads a product code and can record quantity, price, time, store, payment, and customer attributes entered or obtained at checkout. Aggregated POS data supports sales analysis, inventory updates, ordering, merchandising, and demand forecasting.

Answer (c)

Why not others:
- (a) ETC automates electronic road-toll collection

- (b) GPS determines geographic position using satellite signals

- (d) SCM coordinates the wider supply chain rather than naming the checkout data-capture system

Key rule: POS is the transaction-data source at the point of sale; its data can feed inventory, analytics, and SCM systems.
