New Orleans Retailers Learn about New Point of Sale Features from Microsoft Dynamics
This spring, many retailers in New Orleans will be trained on the new Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System (RMS). This system allows retailers to proactively manage pricing, inventory and other critical business information, from the supply chain to the point of sale, and meet the demands of a changing retail marketplace.
Some of the reasons this new technology is being adopted, even by the smallest businesses, is because it allows retailers to make better use of employee and management time. Using a Microsoft Office interface, this retail management system offers a host of automated operations, ensuring smooth operations and constant monitoring of inventory, sales performance, customer demand and trends.
Today’s customers expect the checkout process to be simple and painless. With the Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System, associates can quickly check prices and availability of requested items, process returns and manage multiple forms of payment at the point of sale.
With so many products now competing for shelf space, it is more important than ever to automate the inventory-control process and keep the most desired products in stock at all times. Specialty retailers will welcome the simple-to-use methods that this system provides for managing more complex inventory, and the customizable interface for keeping up with special ordering requirements.
Customers are looking for bargains now more than ever, and this system can help with that as well. With easy access to over 100 reports that analyze sales performance, profitability and demand, you will know what is selling fastest, who is buying and when they are buying, allowing for quick decisions on what to buy and what to mark down. This system even tracks the return on investment of advertising.
The training sessions in New Orleans are brief and hands-on, allowing for retail managers and employees to learn the basic point of sale functions quickly. Microsoft will offer continuing telephone support and follow-up instruction sessions as needed.
