Why is backoffice automation so critical at each C-Store site?
Because the store is where the money comes in. It is also where
the inventory "shrinks" and where your key num- bers come from.
A truly efficient C-Store where the manager and his staff have
the time and the information to really service customers is
the source of profits in this industry.
TSW's C-Store System offers the following benefits:
Scanning: The TSW! System provides the price book that controls
the prices your POS will ring up when scanning. Scanning results
in more accurate pricing, faster service to the customer and
margins that are under your control.
Reduced Shrink:
The TSW! system will keep your inventory at item level and can
tell you exactly what you have in stock at any time. The reduction
in shrink that results -just from the fact that you know - goes
directly to the bottom line. POS Independence: Backoffice automation
can become very expensive if you have to change out your POS
devices in order to implement. TSW! has existing, operational
interfaces to more POS devices than any other backoffice vendor.
The Wayne Plus 3, Wayne Nucleus, Gilbarco, Verifone Ruby, Tokheim
Columbus, Convenient Automation and MSI are some of the POS
devices we currently interface to. If you need an interface
we don't currently have, we can build it for you. Our POS interface
expertise is the best in the world.
Electronic Invoicing:
Electronic invoicing and electronic ordering interfaces your
store system with your grocery wholesaler. The TSW! system will
compute your order for you based on number in stock, rate of
daily sale and number of days it takes to deliver. You edit
that order and electronically transfer that order to your grocery
wholesaler. The grocery wholesaler's invoice comes back to you
electronically and goes directly into the TSW! system at the
store. Any differences in price, product or quantity are highlighted
so you can act at once. Never again will the wholesale price
increase without you having the opportunity to increase your
retail price. This feature also saves many, many hours of hand
entry of receiving into the system, and many hours correcting
errors in that hand entry. |
