Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The off-line storage symbol is the best choice for a hardcopy file of purchase orders as it represents a physical storage location that is not directly connected to the system. The on-line storage symbol represents electronic storage, the terminal symbol represents a point where the user interacts with the system, and the auxiliary operation symbol represents a step that is not essential to the process being flowcharted.
