Emperium epos software for retail in furniture industry

Retailers who are into furniture business endure complex operational challenges related to importing, logistics, fulfilment and stock transfers. There should also be a complete visibility for all the staff across the entire supply chain. Emperium epos software for retail is used to reduce costs, improve efficiencies and to grow their sales.

Cloud Technology built for bulky goods

In cloud platform there is no polling of data between locations, data corruption and no chances of information delay. Information is live and centralized which is also visible in real time. With the help of easy remote access one can view and manage business from anywhere in the world.

Better supply chain visibility improves customer service

In real time a sales person can look up the exact level on inventory for any product across all store locations and warehouse, which is accurate all the time. The advantage with the system is to have instant and accurate supply chain visibility in all outstanding customer orders with stocks in locations including inbound containers.

It helps your staff to provide accurate ETA information on sales orders. Hence due to ETA accuracy customer service is improved and order cancellations are minimized. With live visibility of inbound on containers, it is easy for your staff to sell off the stock on these containers.

With multiple fulfilment methods you can reduce order administration

One can offer unique functionality by setting different methods of fulfilment for each individual product within an order, while creating a new sales order. It may include cash and carry, store pick up, home delivery and warehouse pickup.

Customer wants a home delivery for bulky items such as dining room suite and home wares, cash and carry for smaller items. Each item ordered is flagged with individual fulfilment method required. The software handles appropriate background inventory controls and stock movement, according to the method of fulfilment for each individual product. If only one sales order is created for the customer irrespective of how each item is fulfilled then it substantially reduces order administration.

Inventory control with Source and fulfilment location settings

Sales staff must have the ability to choose which stock locations each product will be sourced and the location it needs to be fulfilled from, when creating a sales order. This has to be controllable by each individual product in the order.

It depends on the ability of the sales person to have control over the source and fulfilment location for each individual product. The sales order provides major efficiencies to retailer and substantially reduce manual administration.

Saving time with automatic transfers and also preventing over-sells

When a new sales order is created at the store location with emperium epossoftware for retail, the inventory needs to be transferred into local store location, either from warehouse or from other store in order to fulfill customer needs. In other retail systems these stock transfers need to be manually generated by the user and for the inventory to be manually allocate the source location. It means some has to identify manually which sales order requires inventory from which location and then manually create a stock transfer within the system. This process consumes valuable administration time and may be some times a forgotten process.

In addition, if a sale is made on a busy weekend at store level then it may require stock to be allocated and transferred from ware house. In some cases it is difficult for a sales person to allocate and commit the same product results in over selling and over committing the same stock. This results in order cancellations and dissatisfaction by the customers.

In order to solve this problem, when if a sales person makes a sale in a store that requires stock to be sourced from another location our software automatically allocates the inventory in real time at other store location and generates a stock transfer request without any manual intervention. This can improve customer service, reduce over sells, accurate and timely management of inventory and also a manual administration of stock transfers.
