Microsoft Retail Management System Features ...

Manage Inventory More Efficiently

Automate inventory management. Track inventory automatically across one store or multiple locations using any stock or sales method. Get insight into your inventory by finding out which items are the best and worst sellers. Use these classifications to assign new sales or price levels quickly for specific segments of your stock.
Reduce inventory costs and out-of-stocks. Maintain tighter control over inventory with automatically generated purchase order suggestions and stock levels, and the ability to transfer inventory across stores. Track storage of offline inventory including non-sellable or broken items
Maintain multiple suppliers per item. Make sure you get the most for your money. Visibility into supplier histories makes it easy to select vendors who offer the best service and the lowest prices

Streamline Point of Sale

Get easy-to-understand point-of-sale screens. Gain quick access to complete product and customer information.
Process transactions quickly. Point-of-sale screens allow your employees to process complex transactions efficiently. Cashiers can also reprint receipts or recall previous transactions from any point-of-sale register.
Offer better customer service. With access to complete customer histories, it's easy to target preferences. Suggest cross-sells and up-sells, advertise other products at the point of sale, and use information to market other products more effectively.

Provide Superior Customer Service

Personalize service and accommodate your customers. Quick access to product and customer information helps your cashiers offer better service. Track entire transaction histories, providing information on customers' previous purchases, payments, and accounts. Call up digital copies of receipts from past purchases and take partial payments with ease.
With multimedia NetDisplay, you can showcase product on a second monitor at your point of sale. NetDisplay is programmable and interactive-entering the customer's name can trigger personal greetings and reminders about items they buy on a regular basis.
Keep your sales team message consistent. Help ensure your customers receive the same consistent product information and messaging from your sales staff.
