The article I am going to talk about today is about Microsoft
releasing streamlines in retailing and what this is going to be is a industry
specific version of the vendors flagship ERP system that is designed to
eliminate barriers that could be holding many retailers back like and example
of this is it eliminates data silos by combining point of sale, inventory ,
supply chain, and financials into on application these are the components that
cobble together with separate software and vendors. You may be wondering why
they would want to be using this type of application for their business well
because of the recant economic times this makes it easier for customers to buy whether
they are in the store or online or even on the go they can still use the store
and buy what they want. Another good thing about this application is that you
can keep track of customers buying behaviors and maybe send them specific adds
for things or maybe coupons for things that are going on sale that week.
Also
another cool feature about this application that would help out a lot of
businesses is this application allows for consistent customer experience that
allows for customers to order online and then pick it up later that day and for
many businesses before it was not possible because they would say they don’t have
the technology for It yet and also
something that will help with sales is this program also runs a retail
multichannel management system that ensures that promotions delivered through
mobile devices or social channels will be recognized and redeemable through the
in-store POS system. Similarly, in-store personnel will be able to see
transactions that were conducted online, so customers will be able to return
merchandise to stores even without the receipt. Also this software is able to
run with 25 countries and has 23 local langues and this will help with trading
and selling online with other countries also some other feature of this is include
prebuilt, role-based user interfaces--think salespeople, store managers and
regional managers in a retail setting. AX 2012 also has embedded business
intelligence and analytics capabilities that can be used to deliver dashboards
and reports with the aid of Microsoft's SQL Server Reporting Services
