Features & Benefits

Efficient & Controlled Ordering

InStore brings the ability to control what products are able to be ordered, ensuring ordering cycles co-exist with production cycles. Using simplified methods of entering information via the handheld, such as barcoding, InStore efficiently transforms a traditionally long and inaccurate process.

Activity Tracking

Planogram, POS, price, promotion, new line, ranging /distribution and non-scan checks are some of the activities that can be planned and executed through InStore. Barcoding, RFID and camera options add a rich reporting functionality.

Efficient Planning

Multiple week views of activities scheduled by the corporate office give visibility of current and future activities. Appointments with clients or pre-scheduled activities, such as new line preparations, become straight forward.

Context Sensitive Messaging

With InStore, the corporate office is able to message an individual, or a group of individuals on the basis of product store or activity type. This ensures that activity specific messages and alerts are received at the appropriate time and read receipts issued ensure compliance.

Rich Reporting

InStore breaks down product SKUs into categories and provides easy access to stock reconciliations and historical data. The data is filtered and collated into reports and are published locally or on the web for authorized external personnel. Standardized and ad-hoc reports are provided.

A Paperless Approach

All transactions and records become immediately available from an electronic storage and retrieval system. Store, product and competitor knowledge is at the fingertips of key decision makers.

Manage Your Field Force Efficiently

InStore maintains logs of all handheld activities including wireless, wired sync activities and log-on/off, so data is available for reporting, payroll, OH&S and other personnel related issues.

Customer Service Informed and empowered staff have access to credit status and other account details so collection of payments or customer transactions can be recorded.
