A POS (Point of Sale System) is a technology platform used by pharmacies to process sales transactions, manage inventory, and streamline various operational tasks. This system typically integrates hardware (e.g., cash registers, barcode scanners, receipt printers) and software to enable pharmacies to efficiently conduct business transactions, manage customer data, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

POS systems integrate various functions, such as prescription handling, payment processing, inventory control, and insurance claims, to enhance efficiency, improve accuracy, and ensure compliance with regulations. By providing real-time data and valuable insights, a POS system plays a crucial role in supporting the operational success of a pharmacy.
