Handheld POS Scanners

July 5th, 2008

I worked in a store that used a Handheld POS Scanner at the register that was capable of also scanning everything in their basket then entering the last four digits of the customers phone number to tag the ticket. This was called a line buster and it sped up dramatically the time it took to ring up a long line of customers. The person at the register simply entered the 4 numbers the customer gave him and he just looked in the basket and compared quickly what was in there to the items on the screen and hit total, the customer paid and was done.
