ABSTRACT
Manual cash registers nowadays can be resource exhausted, less
efficient, and less productive. Research shows that these problems can affect the
business financial status, as well as their relation to the customers. Small
businesses need a Point of sale to improve their service. The researchers
proposed a system designed to resolve this problem. Hence, this study was
conceptualized,
The researchers used agile method since it promotes continuous iteration
of the development and testing throughout the software development lifecycle of
the project. The study was conducted at the University of Rizal System – Antipolo
Campus.
The level of acceptability of the developed system was generally high in
terms of the variables mentioned with a grand mean of 4.67 and 4.61 for experts
and end-users, respectively. It was also determined that there is no significant
difference in the level of acceptability of the developed system as evaluated by
the two groups of respondents.
Finally, the researchers concluded that the developed System is reliable in
terms of Design, Functionality, Accuracy, User-friendliness, and Security and
Maintenance, and it can be subjected to improvement and minor changes in its
features.

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
This chapter presents the following: introduction, background of the study,
assumption, objectives, scope and limitations, significance of the study,
theoretical and conceptual framework, and definition of terms used.
Introduction
A retail store is one of the most appropriate places to quickly and easily go
and buy ones basic needs anytime. The most popular among these is a small
retail store which is 7-eleven that can be found locally and internationally. It is
open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and are often seen as saviors for anyone
looking for almost anything one may need like food, drink, etc.
Many tasks in a retail store can be deadly dull and resource exhaustive.
Retailers can simplify crucial daily business operations with greater proficiency
with the right POS system. Kayla (2020), in her study emphasized the use of
POS system for managing inventory, particularly in retail operations, and for any
business that sell products. Inventory management using a POS system can
save money for small businesses and it is the most expensive asset that a small
business can hold. If businesses hold on to inventory too long, it may become
obsolete and if they don't have enough inventories on hand, the business is in
danger of stocking out and damaging customer goodwill.
1
All businesses require a cash record to deal with product sales in any
convenience store with the best point-of-sale solution, wares, and storage. It is
necessary for a retail-based operation to properly record sales and products,
POS also helps a lot in inventory to organize things in the store easily. The
fundamental function of a typical POS system is it can store much more info than
an old-fashion cash register. It gives details from the company's terminal what
within a few seconds via the main center which can access all inventory data of a
business enterprise. By doing so, one can inventory or check the product online,
which is highly beneficial, given a short period of time.
The point-of-sale system is suitable for quickly retrieving reports and
providing current and exact details about product sales, merchandise, time log,
and much more. Given that POS system commonly utilizes barcode scanning or
similar features, changing and finishing a financial transaction is performed
faster. It is simple to understand the transaction time variation when you
encounter comparability involving the traditional methods and the point-of-sales
procedure. POS system makes it attainable for utilizing functions like refunds,
void, or no sales so straightforward that it is simply a mouse click away. Precision
is an essential element when you're handling an inventory because you can
check your inventory and sales just by using your laptop with internet for online
connection. The system can help a lot of business owner and cashier because
they can easily access the item and sales, by checking it online using our
database system.
2
Background of the Study
A point-of-sale system is one of the essential pieces of technology for any
retail store because it is the central component of a business; it's the hub where
everything—such as sales, inventory, and customer management—comes
together. The POS system handles end-to-end sales transactions and workflow
to make running a business more accessible and well-organized.
During this pandemic, plenty of businesses had to stop because of the
health protocols that the government is implementing. Because of the decrease
in job opportunities, a number of people who wanted to build a small business or
retail store increased. As a result, POS systems have become more popular
because it plays a significant role in managing a retail store because its main
goal is to help in the management of your business. It is important because it
gathers all the data on sales and inventories. With this information, the retailer
can calculate their costs and sales easier and run the marketing campaigns that
encourage customers to come to the store.
The history of POS systems began in 1879 with the invention of the cash
register. Since then, it’s gone through many technological advances, up through
today. They continue to evolve, incorporating new technologies and features, and
simplifying the checkout process for cashiers and consumers, while
simultaneously making businesses more efficient.
Agnes Teh Stubbs (2019) in her study found out that 56 percent of single-
store retailers are still not using one. Instead, they found that many are still using
3
manual methods, cash registers, QuickBooks, and Excel for bookkeeping.
Implementing new technology, particularly technology that is critical to a business
process, can be frightening and overwhelming. Retailers must consider the
negative consequences of not having a POS system because of the risk in
slowing down their operations and missing critical data that could help them grow
their business more quickly. The system can provide information such as key
insights about their customers, inventory levels, and when they should order
more supplies.
With these, the researchers came up with an idea to make a point-of-sale
monitoring system to help the retail stores increase their efficiency; lower the cost
of operation and increase their productivity. This study can help figure out what
other problems might be encountered in building the system.
Theoretical Framework
This study was based on the theoretical principle of (Sharma & Chandak,
2015) where technology is considered as one of the significant areas where
intense focus has been directed to accomplish the much-sought performance in
terms of increased efficiency and effectiveness. Technology has seen substantial
changes in ranges, such as supply chain management, stock management,
client experience, and prevention of loss (Piotrowicz & Cuthbertson, 2014).
Technology needs to take much more notice to various theories about
business. One of those theories is the Technology and Business Ethics Theory.
According to Davies (2014), technology has its own rising momentum that drives
business, and that, while business people believe they have control over
4
technology as an easy neutral means to their aims, the opposite is true: business
is the servant of technological advancement.
The modern POS that customers are familiar with is more sophisticated.
The system incorporates more advanced technology, including software and
large liquid crystal display (LCD) monitors that allow customers to see their totals
add up. POS systems are more intelligent, adaptive, and insightful, providing
retailers with critical information such as inventory levels and customer
preferences. Customer behavior in addition to providing business performance
reports and analysis (Parreño-Marchante et al. 2014).
Conceptual Framework
The developers used the Input-Process-Output (IPO) to present a
paradigm that illustrates the relationship between the input and output. Where
you are inputting information like price, product, and process on how system
work and storing data using MySQL database then output through the system.
The paradigm of the study exhibits the skeletal framework of the research study.
Figure 1 shows the paradigm of the study to be conducted. It illustrates
the content and materials offered in the system to be shown for the study input,
which is the system requirements for the sales environment and inventory field.
Frame 1, the input represents the acquisition stage where the researcher
identifies the data and requirements needed in making a POS monitoring system.
5
It also includes the hardware and software requirements that will be used for the
project or study to be completed.
Frame 2 presents the process. In this section, the agile methodology will
be the basis for the developing of the sales and inventory system. This includes
the following stages: planning, defining, designing, testing, and deployment.
Frame 3 represents the output of the study. Developing an acceptable
Point-of-Sale Monitoring System that will be used as a central component is the
primary goal of this research. The arrow suggests the continuous process of the
development and acceptability of the system.
Figure 2 shows how to function the Point-of-sale system using Input-
Process-Output. First, Customers will purchase a product or item from the store,
and this product will be managed to encode and scan code to know its pricing
and quantity. After scanning, the system will process it, and the system will send
it to the database and store it. After it’s processed, it will send to the system and
show their item using the system and manuals.

Scope and Limitation of the Study
The main goal of this study is to help and organize the sale of every
business for them to efficiently do their work with knowing that their sales are
good and easy to check. The respondents were business owners who need a
system to help them check and keep all reports and transactions in one place,
Understanding how much of your budget will be impacted by adding new
technology to your business is one that will be fluid, and will perhaps be the area
where the most amount of compromise needs to be reached. This will require an
in-depth cost analysis to ensure that you are getting the best
The purpose of this study is for the feasibility of a POS system that is
functional in a retail store. This study can be used in retail stores or another small
businesses in Antipolo City, Rizal and consists of different features like user
accounts and permissions, inventory management, product reports, processing
sales, printing receipts based upon transactions, and dashboard. The beneficiary
of the system is the owners and cashiers of the business.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This chapter presents the research design setting and subject of the
study, research procedure, and statistical treatment of data.
Research Design
This study used the descriptive method, utilizing a questionnaire checklist.
The descriptive research describes a phenomenon and features rather than why
or how a study is more concerned with what happened. We used Descriptive
Research to know the problem that can encounter using POS system and also
learn more and to know what we can do in improving this system. And the
accumulated results are utilized for inventory management and marketing. In the
case that a traceability system is set up, the responsibility for the downstream
components of traceability, such as ascertaining the destination of individual
products, is carried by the POS system
The researchers first gathers more information on a given topic Abu-Musa

Procedure of the Study
18
The study started with the brainstorming of the researchers about
handling and managing paper problems, security, and inventory system
problems like manual mistakes that can be resolved through innovation with the
help of technology. Based on the article written by Kumbhar, Someshwar (2020),
the manual management system for a restaurant or retail store results in slowing
down their businesses in many ways.
study consisting of 20 Respondents, Ten (10) Experts which are Professor
and IT experts and also Ten (10) End-user which are owners of the business
and cashiers of any small business and convenience store that uses inventory.
The researchers would also like to include CpE/IT professionals for the subject of
this study using a method of quota sampling in choosing them.
The mentioned above respondents are the only one who has the right
and experience this kind of inventory and the one who needed it more, they are
the one who suited for this system to know if it's effective and easily do their job
and also to know what improvements that we need to cope and study to give
them some answer in their business.
The researchers analyzed the materials and software needed, including
an online database, Visual Studio 2019, and barcode scanner. The researchers
initially study the process in software management and sales management
processes before developing an experimental system to see if the system can be
stored in an online database. After the verification of functionality, the
researchers started designing and coding the system using Visual Studio 2019
and storing data in an online phpMyAdmin database. The system will be
19
developed based on the readings and literature as advised by the experts. The
goal of the researchers was to reduce the problems faced by the business
owners.
After developing the system, the researchers adopted a questionnaire
checklist which determines the acceptability of the developed system as
evaluated by experts and end-users. The obtained data were tabulated and
analyzed using statistical software.
Statistical Treatment
The data gathered in the study were processed with the use of the
following statistical treatment:
1. To develop a Point-Of-Sale (POS) and Monitoring System for Retail
Stores, no statistical treatment was used.
2. To determine the level of the acceptability of the developed Point-Of-Sale
(POS) and Monitoring System for Retail Store. Mean and standard
deviation were applied.
3. To determine the significant difference in the evaluation of respondents on
the developed Point-Of-Sale (POS) and Monitoring System for Retail
Store, t-Test two-sample assuming equal variance was used.

highest satisfaction from the expert while the end-users give the same average
grade for the system's ability to process accurate data and its capability to
release data accurately.
Ed Higdon (2019), stated that data accuracy is very important in POS
because data is considered to be the rocket fuel that powers the success of a
retail organization. Marketing, supply chain management, resource consumption,
assets and investments, customer experience, personnel management,
productivity, and other aspects of business are all affected. There isn't a single
aspect of retail that is unaffected by data.

means that the highest satisfaction of experts recorded in the system's ability to
prohibit the cashier from using other functions and can access the Point-of-Sale
system only. On the other hand, the end-users graded the highest score on the 3
questionnaires the same; Only the admin and manager can void a
transaction/order, the cashier can only access the Point-of-Sales system, and
only the admin can add, edit or delete records.
Nate Lord, August 11, 2021, stated that it is important to acknowledge that
all POS systems do have some level of risk when it comes to security and
maintenance. Because POS systems handle sensitive client data, they should
emphasize security and maintenance. A breach of consumer payment
information may be extremely costly, both financially and in terms of damage to
your company's reputation. Businesses can dramatically minimize their chances
of encountering an expensive POS security event by taking measures to protect
POS systems and transactions and educating workers on POS security rules.

Users and Experts are satisfied in terms of user-friendliness. This implies that the
simplicity of the system's interface recorded the highest satisfaction from the
experts, while the end-users graded the system's easy-to-understand navigation
as the highest.
Cornelisse (2022) stated that user-friendliness has to additionally be taken
into consideration whilst choosing a POS system. The complete capability of any
POS system cannot be realized if the interface and operating system are difficult
to recognize and navigate for the users. And even as all systems would require a
time investment to discover ways to use them completely and efficiently, consider
41
how well each POS system enables the user to operate it to perform their tasks
quickly and accurately.
The computed grand mean and verbal interpretation of the two groups of
respondents on the Point of Sale and Monitoring System in terms of design,
functionality, accuracy, security, and maintenance, and user-friendliness are
shown in Table 6.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This chapter presents the summary of findings, conclusions, and
recommendations.
Summary of Findings
Following an analysis of the collected data and an evaluation of the
system, the following findings are presented:
1. On the Development of Point of Sale and Motoring System using Visual

Basic programming language.
The researchers were able to developed a system that can
increase efficiency, provide greater accuracy and deliver quick
service throughout the entire operation.
2. On the Validation of the Point of Sale and Monitoring System in terms

of Design, Functionality, Accuracy, Security and Maintenance and User-
friendliness.
2.1 In terms of Design, the overall mean from Experts was 4.55, and
from End-Users was 4.53, which was verbally interpreted as Very
Much Accepted, indicating that both End-Users and Experts are
satisfied in terms of design.
2.2 In terms of Functionality, the overall mean from Experts was 4.56,
and from End-Users was 4.68, which was verbally interpreted as
Very Much Accepted. This means that the system developed met
the requirements of experts and end-users for data processing,
44
filtering and generating reports, creating and completing
transactions, and managing accounts.
2.3 In terms of Accuracy, the overall mean from Experts was 4.65, and
from End-Users was 4.68, which was verbally interpreted as Very
Much Accepted. This implies that the system created provides and
processes the data inputs and is stored accurately.
2.4 In terms of Security and Maintenance was 4.68 overall mean from
the Experts and 4.58 from End-Users, which was verbally
interpreted as Very Much Accepted, indicating that the created
system satisfied the experts and end-users, as users can only
access what is designed for their role.
2.5 In terms of User-friendliness, the overall mean from Experts was
4.73, and from End-Users was 4.6, which was verbally interpreted
as Very Much Accepted. This means that the created system can
easily be used as the system are simple and friendly.
2.6 The grand mean on the level of acceptability of the developed and
evaluated Point of Sale and Monitoring System was 4.67 from the
Experts and 4.61 from the End-Users which was verbally
interpreted as Very Much Accepted.
3. On Significant Difference on the Level of Acceptability of the

Developed Point of Sale and Monitoring System.
3.1 In terms of Experts' and End-Users' perceptions, the researchers
discovered that all p-values are greater than the 0.05 level of
significance, indicating that there is no significant difference in the
45
level of acceptability of the Point of Sale and Monitoring System as
perceived by Experts and End-Users.
Conclusions
The following conclusions were reached based on the study's summary
and findings:
1. The developed Point of Sale and Monitoring System is simple to use and
will ensure a smooth transaction and proper management. The system is
divided into three subsystems: administrator, manager, and cashier, each
of which is carefully illustrated in the system to maximize system benefit.
2. Challenges encountered without a POS system, such as time-consuming,
no tracking of profits, manual mistakes, provision of discounts that can lure
customers, and poor staff management throughout transaction and store
management, will be eliminated automatically following the adaptation of
this system.
3. In terms of Design, Functionality, Accuracy, Security, and Maintenance,
and User-Friendliness, respondents rate the developed system as "Very
Much Accepted." Finally, the two groups of respondents had statistically
identical perceptions.
4. As a result, the developed system will aid experts and end-users in
monitoring, creating, and accepting new transactions and reports
throughout the process.
Recommendations
46
The following recommendations are made based on the summary of
findings and conclusions:
1. Future researchers can add more functions to the features of the
developed system.
2. To record the incoming products in the store, inventory should include a
purchase and payment receipts to the supplier.
3. The system should apply FIFO (First In First Out) to each product.
4. The system should improve the utilization of the Point-of-Sale data.
5. Add features that can be more beneficial to the customers.
