The system offers easy-to-use reports and intuitive dashboards that deliver a complete view of your store performance at a glance.

Inventory management tools help you avoid stock shortages and overages by leveraging sales patterns for a clearer picture of what to order and when. While multi-store functionality makes it easy to balance stock across locations. 

With advanced open to buy planning capabilities, you can increase turns by purchasing according to inventory trends. You can use your transaction data to buy the right products at the right time to increase turns and reduce costly marketdowns.
