Input all your outgoings into the system, specific purchases made, when, and by whom. Limit larger spends to authorised personnel only or create automation to query spends above a certain set amount before processing.

Manage customer orders, generate and submit invoices and mark in the system when shipped and delivered. Deal with customer enquiries and create a support ticketing system to manage and prioritise responses. Communicate with suppliers and generate and send purchase orders digitally.

Schedule your staff well in advance and create a minimum staffing level that will automate an alert if you have allocated less than the set number of workers for any given day. Manage stock levels and automate reminders for when items are low in stock and need replenishing.

Use automation tools to target previous customers with upcoming promotions and offers, and use mail merge to create email campaigns and help gain interest from new and prospective clientele.

Staff can submit holiday requests digitally and management can then receive the notification and authorise it and automatically update the team online calendar for all to see.

Assign your team members specific daily tasks, sales targets, and deadlines and they can view these on the system, and mark when completed. You can also inform each employee of the particular job/area you would like them to focus on for that day, e.g. checkouts, stockroom, window displays etc.

Use the system to communicate with staff at the companies other stores, or with head office. Suggest ideas, share figures, targets and stock, hold meetings, and monitor progression across the entire organisation.
