Short answers like It does. are commonly used to confirm something without repeating the full sentence or using yes or no. Instead of saying Yes, it works for me. or simply Yes, it does., the response is shortened to It does. Another example:
Person 1: Does this solve the problem? - This person is asking if something is a good solution.
Person 2: It does. - This confirms that the solution works without restating the entire sentence.
