Point of Sale Summaries: Debit and credit cards are common forms of payment. A key piece of technology
that makes them convenient is the point of sale terminal. A point of sale (POS)
terminal is a computerized sales register that allows a business and its customers
to exchange funds electronically. At the end of business day, an accounting clerk
can use the POS terminal to print at least source document. One document is the
Host Reconciliation/Card summary which provides sales information for a
particular day. You can see the POS summary reveals the sales activities of three
cards: Visa, MasterCard, and debit cards. It is referred to as a host reconciliation
because the business (the host) will compare the total at the bottom ($743.18) to
an amount that will appear on the bank statement. (Bank statements are prepared
monthly by the business’ financial institution.)
