Efficient Data Systems

Retailers must pay attention to efficient data collection and processing points, from product inventory and stock management to point-of-sale systems. These systems should communicate well together to avoid information errors and data duplicates and speed up the transaction process.

Data needs to be accurate and up to date to allow retailers to fine-tune product range and customer demands, shorten sales cycles and ensure stock is always available. For example, data collected from the POS system should indicate which products sell and which do not. This information can be used to push promotions and discounts to move stock faster.

Capture all the relevant point-of-sale data with the fully integrated solution IQ POS with built-in flexibility for single or multi-site terminal capability.

Integrated Accounting

An integrated accounting system is essential to bring all the operational systems and business processes together, from procurement and stock control to sales.

The accounting system should seamlessly integrate with key retail functions such as stock capture, barcode scanning, promotions, invoicing, billing and POS transactions.

More importantly, it needs to provide a strong financial platform to unify key functionality for every retail process. A cost-effective modular solution can scale and fit specific business requirements, adapting as the business grows.
