As your operations grow, you find yourself dealing with dozens of vendors. How do you keep track of pricing, and find out who is providing the best deal? C-Store Office™ solution gives you item-level oversight on every invoice that comes into your operation. You see immediately if there have been price changes and adjust the price books and point of sale registers at all your stores within minutes of the end of each shift. C-Store Office™ also offers detailed vendor cost comparison reports that show which vendors is the low-cost provider for all the items you purchase from multiple vendors.
Employee Control
Face it–you can’t be everywhere in your company. But C-Store Office™ can! Detailed personnel reports show when staff clocks in and out, tracks breaks, and shows who worked on what point of sale register for every shift. If your point of sale registers allow for employee log-in, C-Store Office™ solution tracks that data and includes it in the common report at the end of the shift. We can even provide you with a biometric sensor that reads employee thumb prints when the employee clocks in, so you can be sure that everyone reports on time.
Payroll reduction
C-Store Office™ reduces the amount of time managers spend on paperwork up to 75%! For the average store, that can mean managers gain back as much as 15 hours a week–time they can spend on the floor serving customers instead of holed up in the back office. Think about what impact that can have on staffing levels!
IT Cost Reduction
Traditional back office systems, with their outmoded client-server architecture have high hardware and installation costs. Beyond these one-time costs, however, is the ongoing cost of an IT staff to manage this infrastructure. Over time, these costs will far outstrip the hardware purchase price. C-Store Office™ solution , with its internet-based architecture, eliminates both types of expense. A simple PC/internet connection is all you need at the store. The server is replaced by the C-store Office Web portal. And the C-Store Office™ IT staff comes with the service at no additional cost. With C-Store Office™, your low monthly subscription displaces high hardware costs and the ongoing burden of supporting additional IT staff.
Downsize store inventory
With C-Store Office™, you will have the sophisticated inventory tracking tools to always know what is on your shelves–and in your USTs. You can avoid overstocking and buy more efficiently. And C-Store Office™ solution lets you examine more aggressive and more conservative fuel purchasing strategies to manage inventory efficiently and maximize rebates and incentives.
Reduce shrink
Detailed shift reports show you exactly what happens on each point of sale register on every shift in every store. You can see item level transactions as well as voids and no sales so you get a clear picture of what is happening in the store. It just like being there 24/7 yourself!
