Results

We managed to implement comerzzia in record time in all the stores of Fund Grube, improving its sales processes by up to 30% with an integration between SAP, Backoffice de comerzzia and POS.

 

The success in the rapid implementation led to the parallel implementation of its 7 Shana clothing and accessories stores also belonging to the Fund Grube group and the Walk store.

 

Problematic

Fund Grube, in full growth stage, demanded a solution that would adjust to its processes and its high work performance. In this line, it required a change in their computer systems in a certain way obsolete and unstable both in the case of ERP and in the POS, with a completely customized solution far from any standard product.


Along with this need for technological modernization, it needed to strengthen its promotions system as the central axis of its client affiliation strategy, both to encourage first purchases and to retain repeat customers. For this, he demanded the use of coupons for manual printing as well as automatic or random printing, application of complex promotions, optimizing his application giving the best offer to the client, a system of intelligent accumulation of points, etc.

 

Solution

comerzzia, taking advantage of its standard integration interface through idocs, joins SAP for Retail, within the synergy with Seidor, to offer a standard and cutting-edge solution in store processes.
