POS = Point of sale, c'est un TPE en français, terminal de paiement. Je n'arrive pas à comprendre le sens d'asset dans cette phrase.

POS, such as asset
TPV, tel que ressource


Explanation:
I believe 'asset' refers to the device, but it could be the terminal ID or the model or perhaps something else. Microsoft's Language Portal suggests many different translations. For 'asset' > 'ressource' the description is, 'An item, such as devices, apps, macros, add-ins and drivers, which Desktop Analytics tests in a deployment plan.' Without more context, it's not obvious.

agree  Daryo: exactly, this text is not about accounting // here "asset" is whatever useful hardware / equipment is available / physically located at the POS. 'ressource' makes sense

Actif d'un terminal de vente


Explanation:
Il s'agit des éléments qui rentrent dans le profile d'un POS: les actifs, l'emplacement, la configuration réseau. Car après "such as" il y a un énumération. Le link que je vous ai donné peut être utile pour la compréhension d'un POS.

  -> No, it's not about accounting. Assets means also "objects". A POS implies a certain logistics, meaning physical and logical resources, each of them with a role in a POS functioning.
