With the introduction of Online Shopping, the consumers have now got a large variety of options to choose from and they don’t have to travel to big cities to purchase something they desire. This has made almost all the retail players in market to foresee what might be the Customers’ demands soon and prepare their stockpile accordingly. The point of sale (POS) is the time and place where a retail transaction is completed. At the point of sale, the merchant would calculate the amount owed by the customer and indicate the amount and may prepare an invoice for the customer and indicate the options for the customer to make payment. It is also the point at which a customer makes a payment to the merchant in exchange for goods or after provision of a service. After receiving payment, the merchant may issue a receipt for the transaction, which is usually printed, but is increasingly being dispensed with or sent electronically.
