  • No matter how big or small your store is, trying to build your own price book is a process that is fraught with headaches and challenges.
    It is a tedious, time-consuming process that requires long periods of focused, detail sensitive data entry.
  • Without the purchase of specialized handheld equipment all items must be carried from the shelf, scanned at the POS with the descriptions, retail pricing, department and category codes manually entered, and then carried back to the shelf.
  • Using store employees takes their focus off of customer service and store operations.
  • For a store with 2,000 – 4,000 items, an error rate of just 3% can cost you thousands of dollars each month!
