There are many reasons why good inventory management is important for a business. One reason is to know how many products are on the shelf so we know when we need to order more and how much to order. This is part of offering good customer service, because accurate inventory records mean we’re better able to have what customers need, when they need it.
The point-of-sale system helps maintain inventory records. Cashiers are responsible for accurately recording sales. This helps us in loss prevention and makes sure we are charging the customer the correct amount for what they buy. Here are a few ways you can make sure you are accurate during checkout.
