Back Office

TAG Retail Back Office Features
Point of Sale Integration
TAG Retail integrates with Point of Sale Solutions offered by Dalcom operating on Windows Operating Systems and iOS Platforms. TAG communicates via an integration called the “Connector” which relays inventory and item information from the POS environment to the cloud allowing for real time inventory analytics and communication from the store from any point with ease.
Inventory
TAG Retail provides a robust inventory solution that offers full inventory evaluation and spot check capabilities in real time. When using our TAG Retail Inventory App in conjunction with Back Office the store can make real time inquires of inventory quantity on hand. This provides accurate inventory numbers which keeps inventory well managed.
Receiving
TAG Retail offers Receiving options that manage internal transfers, vendor receiving, and reporting integrated with our mobile devices operating on both Android and Apple iOS. These controls allow for detailed management of stock receiving and movement at a management level of multiple locations or single site with a detailed view of cost to purchase price comparisons. This allows the customer to validate that all purchases are brought in to stock properly and tracked in detail to the sale.
Suggested Ordering
TAG Retail offers a feature called “Suggested Order” which tracks the inventory on hand and the sales of the items in the location to make a recommendation for what needs to be ordered to keep the stock in check. This feature is done by tracking the items sales turnover and tracking the order delivery timeline to ensure that stock is managed in a way that your overall on hand is not a high cost burden but keeps stock available for the next sale.
Financial Reporting
TAG Retail offers customized and detailed reporting to meet the needs of the customer. Currently TAG Retail offers a controlled ABC System reporting module to meet the needs required by the State of North Carolina. TAG Retail also offers a general business use module also that can be customized to meet the reporting need.
Standalone or Client Interface
TAG Retail Back Office can operate as an independent system or by integrating with financial software like Quickbooks and other payroll systems. TAG Retail also integrates with Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 and higher as a client for store operations.
Inventory
The “TAG-INV” application gives the store the ability to count and track inventory variances on demand with real time inventory lookup capabilities. In conjunction with the Back Office Portal, one can provide a look into the value of stock at a location in real time.
Receiving
The “TAG-REC” application converts the customer’s ability to receive stock and transfer stock between locations into a single point to handle the entire flow from a single interface. The application reduces variances and help prevent employee theft by adding controls in the release and receiving of stock.
Point of Sale
The “TAG-POS” application is a robust IOS application that is EMV Compliant with all needed functionality of a traditional system to process sales.
