Apparel Retail Systems™ : |
|
General Overview - The system is designed for retail groups with a number of outlets and a Management structure which requires effective reporting. Many retail systems are designed for very large retail enterprises where the sophistication of reporting reflects the scale of the business and there is a high degree of resource require at the central warehouse or warehouses to make the systems operate.
Our systems are being developed on a continual basis so as to enable retailers to gain access to affordable technology that they can use themselves without the need for experienced Data Processing staff.
Where possible we are putting the emphasis on as much work that can be done at the retail outlet being done at the retail outlet. This is normally where there is capacity to label products and handle stock transfers, stock takes and other functions providing instructions are clear enough and the software for use at the
shops is simple and "fool proof" enough. |
OBJECTIVES - The main objectives of Apparel Retail Systems are
to provide for the following : |
|
To enable stock to be moved from where it is not selling to where it can best be sold. |
|
To provide a simple yet accurate and effective system. This removes as much scope for error from the sales assistants, so that they can concentrate on Customer Service. |
|
To automate as much of the stock allocation and transfer process as possible yet retaining flexibility to manually override. |
|
To avoid "mountains" of paper that some systems have to generate in the form of reports. The use of screen enquiries where possible is adopted. |
|
To provide accurate information to enable products that is selling to be purchased and not those that are not selling. |
|
To ensure that at the end of each day there are totals for the days "takings" that can be checked by Management and not at the shop and compared in detail with what has been sold. |
|
To be able to look at sales not just in terms of units and value sold but to look
at profitability by Product and Product Group also. Reporting normally will
show:- daily, weekly, weekly rolling average, monthly (monthly rolling average),
season and annual sales in terms of Units, Sales Value, Cost and Profit |
|
The System handles general products and products that are in colours and sizes. |
|
Overall profitability information by outlet and performance data for each area of the business e.g. Stock Turnover, Product group analysis etc. |
