                                       Screenshot 4: Price List Window



2.1.2.1 Retail
A separate price list may be established for each Retail Organization unit.

The following precedence rules are observed:

1. If a Price List has been assigned to a store, any product sold in this store will take the price from
   the store level price list.

© Openbravo July 2012                                                                        Page 9 of 32
Openbravo for Retail



2. If the store does not have an assigned price list, the price will be inherited from the nearest
   parent element (store group) in the organizational structure.




                              Screenshot 5: Product card with Price Information



2.1.2.2 Wholesale
The standard Price List management functionality can be used for creating the wholesale pricing.




2.1.3       Assortment Management
The main goal of Assortment Management is to define assortments, and identify which articles are to
be listed for which stores. The variety (breadth) is the number of different merchandising categories
within a store or department. The assortment (depth) is the number of SKUs within a category. The
product availability defines the percentage of demand for a particular SKU that is satisfied.


Key functionality includes:

       Create Product Lists
       Clone a Product List
       Assign Product List to a Retail Organization node:
            o If a store has an assigned product list, it can only trade with products defined inside
                the product list.
            o If the store does not have an assigned product list, the product list will be inherited
                from the nearest parent element (store group) in the organizational structure.

The warehouse management processes built into Openbravo for Retail allow the inventory to always

        stores the merchandise and then prepares it to be shipped to customers or stores

           transactions are allowed in each warehouse. See details here:
                    http://www.openbravo.com/product/exchange/modules/warehouse-transactions-
        management/




2.2.3       Merchandise Distribution
Retailers often have to distribute merchandise centrally among a large number of recipients, using a
variety of methods. Merchandise can be delivered directly from the vendor to the recipient, from a
DC to a recipient, or from the vendor to a distribution center and then to the recipient.

Depending on the merchandise type or during special time periods, a retailer may use push or pull
methods to plan merchandise distribution and then trigger and execute distribution in the distribution
center. Regardless of the type of planning, merchandise can either be placed into stock or passed
through the DC (typically by using methods like cross-docking or flow-through).

By using the different purchasing or inventory document transactions, Openbravo for Retail lets
retailers efficiently manage the required planning and processing distribution activities.

Key functionality includes:
       Purchase orders
       Goods receipts
       Goods movements
       Incoming shipment
       Outgoing shipment

Existing handheld terminals may also be used on a store-and-forward basis to collect and upload
inventory information, via standard data load formats or with a simple extension.




2.3.5      Payments Handling
Openbravo Web POS and the Backoffice provide a complete functionality for managing payments.

Key functionality includes:

       Payment methods set up for each POS terminal
       Cash and credit card payments (integration with external payment terminals)
       Multiple payment methods in one ticket
       Cancel payment
       Backoffice payment management

            Credit card payments are managed in conjunction with a multifunctional payment
            terminal, which communicates with a payment gateway. Different card types or
            transactions (like credit, debit, Chip&Pin) can be supported depending on the terminal
            type and payment processor. An integration with the desired terminals or payment
            gateway will typically be needed. Note that card payments must be processed online.



            For implementations that integrate an E-Commerce platform integrated with Openbravo
            for Retail, payments are typically managed directly by the E-Commerce platform
            payment component.

2.3.6       Cash Operations
2.3.6.1 Cash Management
The Openbravo Web POS user interface provides complete, easy to use functionality for managing
cash movements in the store, covering different situations like small payments (petty cash

By using the Openbravo Web POS user interface, Openbravo for Retail provides complete support
for cashing up.

             Cash Up can only be processed online.




Key functionality includes:

       Step-by-step closing process
       Pending ticket review. At the end of the day you will often find open tickets that were either
        paid without registering the payment (Quick Cash) or the customer simply walked away. The
        Web POS GUI gives the user a fast way of closing or voiding these tickets.

© Openbravo July 2012                                                                   Page 19 of 32

       Count cash, with the ability to register the amount difference, when the expected and real
        amount in cash are not the same. A specific G/L Item can be set up at POS Terminal Type
        level in order to register these differences
       Cash to keep, with the ability to decide how the amount corresponding to each payment
        method will be moved to the financial accounts
       Post, print and close, which prints the cash up ticket and initiates the process in the back
        office




                               Screenshot 13: Cash Up (End of Day) process




2.4       Enterprise Management
2.4.1       Organizational structure
Any retail business needs to plan its organizational structure in a way that maximizes efficiency and
profitability. No matter how large or small the operation, whether it is a major department store or
single-unit boutique, each company must be structured in such a way that best serves its needs and
makes the business a success.

Openbravo for Retail includes sophisticated platform level support that enables retailers to
hierarchically      model        organizations      of        arbitrary      complexity,        (see
wiki.openbravo.com/wiki/General_Setup#Enterprise_Model). The easy to use interface allows you to
create new nodes (organizations), which serve as the basis of the security model as well as the
reporting model--with organization level summary reporting and advanced drill down capabilities.

Key functionality includes:

       Organization marked as Store or Store Group. A Store Group can represent a sales region,
        geographic zone, or whatever makes sense for your oganization
       Local warehouse associated to a store

2.4.2       Human Resources / Staff Management
Openbravo for Retail fully integrates the basic functionality needed to manage human resources at
the retail store and corporate levels.

The easy to use and highly productive user interface helps to minimize the impact of the typical work
environment (open long hours, peak sales periods, emphasis on cost control) and work force
realities (part-time, diverse backgrounds) that generally make Human Resource Management in
Retail a challenge.

Key functionality includes:

       Track and manage employee information
       Track sales agent performance
       Set up and manage sales commissions
       Centrally compute sales commissions based upon sales transactions
       Easy integration with external attendance systems or payroll systems for computing hours
        and labor costs at the head office

2.4.3       Financial Management
The financial management and accounting functionalities provided by the Openbravo for Retail
solution are designed to minimize manual or redundant data input, thereby freeing users from
tedious, routine tasks and allowing greater focus on other, more value added tasks. This increase in
productivity is due to the financial system acting as automated collector of all the relevant
transactions generated from the other operational departments. This occurs in such a way that these
activities are automatically reflected in the general accounting, and in the accounts receivable and
accounts payable, as soon as they occur. Openbravo’s unique multi-schema accounting allows
each activity to be reflected financially in different ways, allowing multinational retailers to automate
financial data collection to support both local and corporate reporting to easily meet diverse
management, financial and regulatory compliance needs.

2.5       Retail Intelligence
Openbravo for Retail uses and extends the standard Openbravo 3 reporting capabilities.


2.5.1       Dimensional Reports
A significant number of reports in Openbravo are multidimensional, which means that the user can
select which type of information to include into the report, how to group and sort it, and how to filter
it.
Additionally, comparative analyses can be made (with variations percentage), by combining in one
report information from different periods.
Common dimensional report primary filters include:

       Dates: enter a Date From and Date To to be used while retrieving the data.
       Amounts: enter a range of amounts to be used while retrieving total amounts. Note that
        amounts displayed in the reports are usually net amounts.
       Comparative Report: select it in case you need to get a comparative report between two
        different time periods.

Secondary Filters section normally includes Organization, Business Partner / Product Group fields,
multiple selector of Business Partner and Product, and various report-specific felds.


Key reports include:

       Shipments dimensional report
       Invoice dimensional report

2.5.3       Grid
The grid view functions as the base view, and often as the starting point to filtering and drilling down.
The user can open a record in form view on top of the grid. The Openbravo 3 grids let you browse,
select, filter and organize high volumes of data with ease.

Advanced grid functionalities include:

            o Date column filters: Clicking it will launch a dialog where you can set a relative date
                  range, for example 8 days ago till today.
            o Dropdown column filters: Filters that contain a limited set of values. Just open the
                  dropdown and select a value. One of the values is always "blank" in case you do not
                  want to filter the column.
       Implicit filters
       Setting columns visibility
       Sorting
       Columns position and size

  • 10. Openbravo for Retail 2. If the store does not have an assigned price list, the price will be inherited from the nearest parent element (store group) in the organizational structure.

The product availability defines the percentage of demand for a particular SKU that is satisfied.

Merchandise can be delivered directly from the vendor to the recipient, from a DC to a recipient, or from the vendor to a distribution center and then to the recipient. Depending on the merchandise type or during special time periods, a retailer may use push or pull methods to plan merchandise distribution and then trigger and execute distribution in the distribution center. Regardless of the type of planning, merchandise can either be placed into stock or passed through the DC (typically by using methods like cross-docking or flow-through). By using the different purchasing or inventory document transactions, Openbravo for Retail lets retailers efficiently manage the required planning and processing distribution activities.
