Anybody that frequents shopping malls are familiar
with the bar coding systems used by retailers
to ease the line at the pay points.
No more long lines at the till as the operator just
pulls the product past the scanner and voila – the
buyer pays and are on their way.
What most people do not realize is that the bar coding
systems entails more than just the code being scanned
with the scanner. The systems normally plugs straight
into a database, which is also hooked up with the
accounting system and the moment the item is scanned,
it deducts the item from the warehouse’s inventory.
Each product in the database has a minimum stock level
– the moment it reaches that stock level, it sends
out an alert that x amount of a product needs to be
ordered. Automated, convenient, easy.
