Abstract:
The objective on development of a Point-of-Sale (POS) system aimed at
optimizing retail store operations. In the modern retail environment, businesses require
integrated and efficient systems to manage sales transactions, inventory tracking, and
data reporting in real time. Traditional manual methods often lead to inefficiencies,
errors, and poor decision-making due to lack of accurate and timely data. This study
proposes a customized POS system designed to meet the specific needs of small to
medium-sized retail businesses. The system includes core features such as real-time
transaction processing, product and stock management, sales reporting, and user access
control. By using modern web-based technologies, the POS system allows for easy
accessibility, scalability, and integration with existing business processes. The
methodology used in this research follows the Waterfall model, which includes
sequential phases: requirement analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and
maintenance. Usability and functionality are evaluated through testing in a simulated
retail environment. The expected result of this project is a functional POS system that
enhances operational efficiency, reduces human errors, and provides business owners
with insights through data analytics. This research also highlights how digital tools can
empower retail businesses to improve customer service, streamline their operations,
and stay competitive in the digital era.
