Microsoft Retail Management Systems
Store Operations for a Single Retail Store
StyleTeks and Microsoft provide solutions for both single and multi-store retailers. Let's take the time to provide an overview of the entire suite of Retail Management Software.
The Microsoft Retail Management System refers to several applications/products:
Store Operations
Store Operations is the software package providing individual stores with POS and Inventory Control software. This is the main package that is used to manage your retail business. A single retail store interested in the Microsoft Retail Management System (RMS) makes an investment in this software to accommodate Inventory Control, tracking and ordering items, and performing sales and transactions. Store Operations is installed in at least one retail store front. As your business grows and you add additional retail stores to your Organization, a retailer implements the Store Operations software at each location.
Our single store solutions include:
Headquarters
Headquarters is the software package providing a central repository for all your store's retail data. As you grow and add additional stores with Store Operations, you have the option to integrate Headquarters. Headquarters will allow your central office the ability to view retail data across your entire retail Organization, including sales, inventory, accounting, reporting, and customer records and history for all your retail stores. This solution is recommended to retailers wanting a centralized view of all store performance and information.
Microsoft POS
The Microsoft POS software is similar to Store Operations with the exception that it is intended to manage only one store without intent of adding and "linking" additional stores using the Headquarters software. If your intent is to open a single store without future expansion then this solution is recommended.
