Figuring out the right stock levels can be quite a task. You need the right product on the shelf, to meet customer expectations without building excess inventories. RockySoft’s Retail Store Planner (RSP) software for Distribution and Retail delivers the tools you need to make automated re-stocking decisions. This visually based, graphical, and easy-to-use application integrates demand forecasting, inventory planning, and helps you effectively manage on-hand inventory at retail locations.

Retail Store Planner (RSP) is a store-level restocking order generator. RSP improves productivity and customer service by fully automating re-stocking suggestions by: generating forecasts (including seasonality), dynamically calculating the min/max settings for shelf facings, and planning for promotional items. RSP fully integrates Point of Sale (POS) data and input from handheld devices.

• Enhanced fill, customer service and sell-through – shelf inventories are automatically aligned to meet forecasted demand including seasonal effects, and promotions
