Planning (Open to Buy) software ensures adequate stock levels and more
A successful project of any kind – whether it be a business or any other effort – requires careful planning. We are taught from an early age to map out how we plan to accomplish our tasks, and there’s a reason for that: it works. The world of retail is full of careful planning and consideration. A business cannot succeed without it. With that being said, planning is not always an easy task. It requires that you have the right tools to make predictions, record plans, track progress, and much more. For that reason, you should invest in ChainDrive’s retail management software. Our retail software package offers customers a wide range of solutions for retail oversight and management. The Planning (Open-to-Buy) software tool provides comprehensive support to ensure that stock levels are adequate and that you’re getting the most profit possible out of your business.
The software’s dynamic controls put you in the driver’s seat when it comes to planning for your business. These tools are flexible and adaptable to a wide range of situations and offer you comprehensive control over your planning. The “Plan, Validate, and Lock” feature is one example – it offers you the ability to lock and unlock single data cells and entire sub-level plans. Use this to exempt or isolate certain important data points.
With the ability to store plans for multiple seasons, ChainDrive software fully supports year-round planning. Even if your business isn’t particularly dependent on the time of year, use this as a means to set expectations for various periods of a given business year and track your progress. All seasonal plans can be consolidated into a single corporate view so that you can be sure that your season-by-season plans match your overall plan for success.
These are just a few of the reasons that ChainDrive’s Open-to-Buy software is the best tool around for planning. Pick it up today!
