DataWarehouse and DataMining - Success can be measured and thus controlled

Futura delivers very quick top-down analyses so that changes in trends - such as best and worst sellers - can be easily and quickly recognised.The analyses can be displayed graphically or viewed directly on the screen as a list.

Product trend analyses, branch trends, market basket analyses, STPS (short term profit statement), comparative analyses, extrapolations and a large number of customized evaluations are possible.The statistical data can be exported and processed in other systems.We also provide an interface to Crystal Reports.The FuturPilot™ is a technology used to supply company wide success data in a condensed and graphical way: you can drill down via mouse click from the company overview to detailed information about branches and items.

The "Select & Execute" function enables you to filter your DataWarehouse data in accordance with your selections so that the filtered out items can be made available to other functions such as Price Change, Inter-Branch Transfer and Promotion where they can directly be used for particular tasks.

Trend analyses based on statistical data in combination with stochastic extrapolation channel the goods to where the demand is and consequently to where they will actually be sold.This enables Futura users to transfer best sellers from one branch to another during the season so that the product can be sold at the planned priced before going into the price reduction phase.

Futura is an integrated retail management system for LifeStyle Retail. Futura serves all areas of a company through which an item passes. This starts with order planning, moves on to goods received, checking of supplier invoices, allocating the goods to the branches, PC POS or TouchPOS, customer order, replenishment, inter branch transfer, integrated financial accounting, statistical analyses and finishes with automated data exchange with the branches. Futura's modular and scalable design allows any type of organisational structure of a company to be mapped: branch system, department stores, franchising, retail concession management (shop in shop, store or concession). Key functions of the Futura system can flexibly be shifted from the head office to the branches. Various interfaces, e.g. to accounting systems, web shops, scanners, credit card terminals, etc. are available. The potential integration with typical ERP systems ensures absolute data transparency from the sales transaction at the POS, via the automatic replenishment up to assortment and production planning. Futura is rounded off by the integration of all EDI message types and ASP support.
