Document Summary
Define and explain the role of transaction processing systems (tps) Transaction processing system (tps) monitor, collect, store, and process data generated from all business transactions: these pieces of data are inputs to the organization"s database. First, data is collected by people or sensors, and entered into the computer via an input device. Generally speaking, organizations try to automate the tps data entry as much as possible because of the large volume involved, a process called source data automation. Next, the system processes data in one of two basic ways: batch processing or online processing. (see next ?) Understand the two basic ways that systems process data. In batch processing, the firm collects data from transactions as they occur, placing it in groups or batches. The system then prepares and processes the batches periodically (say, every night). In real time transaction processing, business transactions are processed online as soon as they occur.
