SAP IS Retail Item Management

SAP Retail provides an integrated merchandise management solution that helps retailers overcome their pain points. For example, if a retailer is using many point solutions and multiple item databases this may lead to inconsistent master data.  Furthermore, retailers also often struggle with large volumes of master data records as a result of many items, many locations, and frequent changes. 

 With SAP Retail, retailers can create and manage large numbers of master data using user-friendly mass maintenance tools; exception-based management; referencing logic to limit data creation; manual input matrices; and electronic import/export mechanisms to collaborate with vendors, bring in data from planning applications, and access industry data pools.  Master data maintenance screens can be tailored to meet simple or sophisticated requirements. 

As part of that solution, item management means that you only need to set up your items once in one place and all areas of your organization that require access to that information can access it immediately. The finance department, distribution center, merchandisers, buyers, etc. can all view the same consistent data.  Since inventory transactions and adjustments, as well as item maintenance (pricing, promotions, UPCs, etc.) are updated in real-time, retailers will always have an accurate view of performance.
