Retail Pro is designed and built using a superior architecture that delivers exceptional flexibility, maximum performance and unlimited scalability.

All Modules Necessary for Store Operations in One System
  • Integrate all your key store operations - Sales, Inventory, Purchasing, Receiving, Transfers, Customer Management, and Employee Management - in one product.
  • Navigate seamlessly between components, with no need to back in/out of components or launch/exit other applications.
Multi-currency, Multi-language
  • Manage all of your subsidiaries and stores, regardless of the currency, tax or language used.
  • Select any currency as your base currency and assign as many exchange rates as needed for each foreign currency, and the date the rate takes effect.
  • Assign a currency to items and vendors to facilitate orders of foreign items.
  • Import/Export Translation Files in XML Format. This enables a translator to translate Retail Pro using programs such as Notepad or Excel.
Architecture
  • Oracle relational database scales virtually without limit as your business grows.
  • Open design for easy integration with legacy systems to maximize existing resources. For example, Employee Payroll, Merchandising, ERP, or CRM.
  • Low administration and easy installation takes the burden off your IT staff. Built-in Technician’s toolkit provides easy access to a variety of tools for maintaining the database (tuning, re-indexing, performing backup/recovery, rebuilding control and password files, adding data files, and checking/compiling schema).
  • Supports SQL (Structured Query Language) and XML (extensible Markup Language), which provide access to standard development platforms for any custom development.
Communication Using ECM
  • Exchange data between stores/stations at any time without disrupting store operations.
  • Specify the types of data to exchange, and designate which station controls inventory.
  • ECM encodes data to XML (extensible Markup Language) in a compressed format, and then securely transmits the data by whatever device (Internet, modem, disk, etc.) you select. At the target station, the data is decompressed and decoded.
  • Exchange data with a variety of systems, including CRM, ERP, and Payroll.
