    Explanation
    The correct answer is maintaining sales records. A sales clerk who enters bar code information and prices of items in the computer database is responsible for maintaining accurate records of sales transactions. This includes recording the details of each sale, such as the item purchased, its price, and any applicable discounts or promotions. By keeping these records up to date, the sales clerk helps the company track sales performance, inventory levels, and customer preferences, which can inform future business decisions. Filing sales records or engaging in promotional activities are not directly related to the task of entering bar code information and prices in the computer database.
