A basic Point of Sale system is a computer with special equipment and software to allow it to function as a cash register in a retail store or wholesale distributor.

Most basic POS systems include:
A cash drawer that auto opens when sale is complete
A receipt printer for sales receipts
A hand scanner to read bar codes
A credit card scanner or reader
Point of Sale application software (which would include Sales, Inventory and Accounting modules plus other options)
Additional hardware and software options are available

A more advanced POS system would include more than one PC register networked together, usually with a back office PC for entering inventory, printing reports and accounting. Other options are available.
