The key capabilities

Flexible ranging.

Set up and manage groups of
products and assign them to
multiple stores and channels to
build a range for every store. Based
on the principles of modular
ranging, it allows you to build and
allocate range modules to stores.

Demand forecasting.

Forecast both regular and
promotional demand more
accurately using statistical and
machine learning models. Work
at any level of the merchandising
and location hierarchies down to
store/SKU level.

Grading.

Classify branches and stores
based on attributes and assign
them grades. You can then
range by grade and set up
replenishment parameters in
merchandise group/grade
combinations.

Master Data Management

Set up and manage multiple
merchandise hierarchies,
merchandise groups and seasons.
Designed for fashion, non-fashion
and grocery merchandising, you can
set up complex product structures
based on product types with rich
attribution.

Efficient purchase ordering.

Place supplier orders based on an
accurate Demand Forecast for delivery
direct to stores or via warehouse. We
support multiple approaches to
creating purchase orders including
multiple purchase order types and
processes.

Sophisticated allocation
and replenishment.

Manage stock efficiently across all
channels to optimise stock holding
whilst meeting desired service levels

With support for multiple replenishment
and allocation methods, you can also
create replenishment product groups
separate from traditional merchandise
groups.

Supplier management.

Create and maintain supplier
catalogues, packs and cost prices.
Track supplier deliveries and book
them in with sophisticated stock
receipting in warehouse and in stores.
Seamlessly deal with over-deliveries,
un-ordered stock and supplier
returns. We also support drop-ship
orders, supplier-reserved stock,
rebates as well as automated Invoice
Matching.

Full stock management.

Manage real-time stock at branch
and warehouse with support for bin
and location stock management,
stock segmentation, picking,
despatch, stock transfers, stock
adjustments and full stock counting.
You also have tracking and full
auditability of all stock movements
and statuses.

Sales audit.

Audit sales from any channel
and any system including 3rd
party POS and websites before
they are accounted for and
released to update stock.

Price and promotions
management.

Set up and track pricing and
promotions with our sophisticated
promotional setup and seamless
communication to both stores and
e-commerce.
