The Power Of Multi Location Stock Management From Advansys Ltd

When operating a multichannel retail business stock management can become a full time occupation, even if your company only has one warehouse. Stock requires allocating between the various channels and websites must be kept updated of accurate stock levels to ensure that there is no chance of undersupplying products and having delayed deliveries.

Advansys Ecommerce Solutions have created a Cross Channel Ecommerce CMS which takes care of this problem for you, taking a single stock figure and virtually allocating product to each channel so that channel listings created through the Content Management System as well as the stock figure displayed on your ecommerce website will always be accurate and with no chance of running out of a product and having to make embarrassing calls to customers to explain the delay.

The Advansys stock management system, as part of the Cross Channel CMS, also allows stock to be entered by batch, with individual items attached to orders, making for a fully trackable system, ideal for perishable items, pharmaceuticals and items that may be subject to manufacturer recalls. This system even logs the location of each batch within the warehouse, meaning that picking products for order packing does not require extra information than that which is printed in the pick list the system generates during processing.

The latest innovation on this system is the ability to manage stock in this level of detail between various locations, ideal for retailers with more than one store or warehouse. This ability not only gives management a high level view of stock or supply issues but the data can be used by extra systems within the CMS or externally. In this way stock transfers requests can be effected through the CMS, by management to support higher sales of one product at a particular branch, by store managers in response to customer interest.

The system is not just able to facilitate transfers of stock between locations, it can be part of your customer services policy. If stock is not available at a store, the EPOS software can be made able to place either a stock transfer request or allow customers to place and pay for an order to be delivered, essentially an ecommerce order via the EPOS system. For smaller companies wishing to retain a personal service (and lower their delivery overheads) Ecommerce orders could be flagged by location for a hand delivery.

The possibilities are truly endless and Advansys Ltd are paving the way for intelligent ecommerce and retail systems that will make your operations more efficient and with greater customer engagement than you ever thought possible for a modern business.
