Inventory Management

A footwear retail store typically maintains several hundred footwear styles, which further expand into thousands of variants based on size, color. Since footwear sales are highly dependent on correct size availability and comfort, inventory must be maintained accurately and handled with close control.

  • Each footwear product includes size and color variants tracked separately in inventory.
  • All footwear items are boxed individually, with inventory managed at box level.
  • Footwear are tracked by quantity and Lot tracking is used only in rare cases.
  • Automatic replenishment is configured for high-demand and fast-moving footwear.
  • Popular sizes and variants can be reserved for pending online or in-store orders.
  • Detailed reports track stock levels, movements and variant availability efficiently.

Footwear Stock Operations

  • Footwear accessories like socks and shoe brushes are maintained in inventory.
  • Inventory adjustments occur for damaged items, returns, or stock discrepancies.
  • Footwear not fit for sale, including display or model pairs, is recorded as scrap.
  • Regular internal stock transfers are done between these locations.

Point Of Sales

Most sales in a footwear retail business happen through walk-in customers at the store counter. Customers try the footwear to check for fit, comfort, size, style, and price before making a purchase.

Retail Billing Process

  • At the POS counter, footwear is added to the bill by scanning the barcode or searching the product.
  • Stock is updated automatically in real time after each sale transaction.

Product Pricing Method

  • For branded footwear, the selling price is set equal to the printed MRP.
  • For unbranded, the selling price is set as cost plus a defined markup.

Linking Salesperson to Orders

  • The salesperson assisting the customer is linked to the order in the POS system.
  • This ensures proper customer assistance for fit, comfort and style selection.

Handling Size and Style Exchanges

  • In footwear retail, exchanges for different sizes or styles are common.
  • These exchanges are easily handled in the POS system, with inventory updated automatically.

Purchase Management

In a footwear retail business, purchases are carefully planned and controlled because footwear comes in many sizes and variants and is not a fast-moving commodity for every style. Buying decisions are based on seasonal demand, fast-moving designs, and past sales trends.
Supplier Mapping

Each footwear product is mapped to distributors, wholesalers, manufacturers or local suppliers.

Multiple Suppliers

A single footwear style can be linked to multiple suppliers based on availability and pricing.

Variant-Based Ordering

Each variant (size, color, style) is ordered in different quantities based on demand.

Manual Ordering

Purchase Orders can be created manually for footwear based on demand.

Automatic Reordering

Automatic reorder rules generate Purchase Orders according to footwear demand patterns.

Quality Checks

Footwear undergoes stitching, sole, and material inspections before GRN validation.

Returns Handling

Damaged, wrong-size or poorly finished footwear is returned to vendors.

Vendor Billing

Billing ensures accurate tracking of payments and supplier financial transactions.

Vendor Price Optimization

Compares supplier prices and delivery timelines to ensure cost-effective and timely procurement.
