What revenue attribution uses from each
Revenue attribution needs a way to connect a touchpoint to a payment.
From POS Systems that means in-store sales tied to a receipt email or loyalty phone number. From Slack it means launch announcements in the channels you connect.
These two tools hold no shared customer identifier, so per-customer answers need a third connected tool that each side can match, such as GA4 or your CRM. Daily totals work with these two alone.

What each tool sees on its ownShow less
POS Systems on its own

Timing. Many POS systems settle and export transactions in end-of-day batches.
Access. The POS vendor's API where one exists, or a daily export.
Slack on its own
Slack records what the team said about the business and when. Sales, traffic and spend live in other tools.
Timing. Slack timestamps every message, which makes it a record of when the team noticed and decided things.
Access. A Slack app installed to the channels you choose.
