Sell from your Retail Outlet and Online Shop

With increasing competition, more and more retailers choose to have an online shop, too.

Why? Because an online shop brings in sales similar to an outlet in a shopping center, but with less costs. Therefore, an online shop plays an important role in the growth and development of retail business.

Also, online retailers open brick-and-mortar shops too, to get closer to their customers.

Retail Chain Logistics

✔ Set the minimum stock level by shop type ✔ Track your missing items during transit, until the reason and person responsible are identified ✔ Automatically generate branch transfer orders and purchase orders ✔ Save time and money

Advantages:

Inventory stock optimization	For every item, the system automatically calculates the quantity that has to be ordered in every shop, based on both sales and optimal stock level. You can control and plan your stocks.
Shop re-order automation	Automatically generates branch transfer orders and purchase orders, based on optimal stock. Automatically generates purchase invoices and supplier delivery orders, based on orders. Based on the Transfer Delivery Order, the stock keeper will be able to specify if there are any missing items at the confirmation. Staff in charge with purchases and stock replenishment has the tool that implies what needs to be done.
Identify fraud	Provides you the full picture of the items' route: staff in charge with delivery, driver's name, person who confirmed the receipt, date and time of delivery and of purchase invoice. So, you have all the necessary information to identify exactly WHERE and WHEN the loss occurred and WHO is responsible.

Shop re-order automation:

• First, the shop manager submits online the "POS Order". It can be manually introduced, or generated automatically based on the sales forecast.
• At headquarters, the delivery note is generated for each shop, based on the pending POS orders.
• During the transport, the goods are tracked for each route until they are received at the destination.
• Delivery Note Receipt in the shop: the shop manager will check the quantities of goods, and submit the validation as an electronic signature. The Entry Note is automatically generated.
