Centralized Store Management

Microsoft Dynamics AX for Retail can centrally manage stores and POS terminals from back office. Currency, account and item masters to be used in transactions, roles and permissions of store staffs and hardware configuration including POS visual profiles and screen layouts can be all setup from back office. Centralized management helps ensure critical updates across the organization: configurable, flexible inventory and financial updates, sales order payments, gift card usage, and issuance and usage of loyalty points.

Employees at back offices can view the updated sale information by store, POS terminal, sales person and item and so on.
