I do other things besides COBOL but I maintain and occasionally enhance many COBOL applications:

- Item Database (SKU, UPC, attributes)

- Stock Status (Sales, Onhands, process sales transactions from POS systems)

- Replenishment (Create vendor and DC orders to stores)

- Reporting (Report sales and other performance data by stores, departments, classes, etc..)

- Pricing (make and maintain current and future price changes, send to store when needed).

- Many other applications (15+)

They have been saying they are going to get rid of these applications for over 20 years now. I am still waiting...
