Retail shops consist of the types of stores normally found in a mall. Toy stores, clothing stores, gift shops, and book stores are examples of general retail shops. Each of these have specialized needs. For example, a clothing store or shoe store needs to be able to use the matrix options for size and color and book stores need to be able to search by title or author.

Windward System Five has what it takes for a small retail shop to be successful. Being a fully integrated package, it’s easy to keep track of every transaction in your store from sales, stock movements, taxes and gross profit, right through to staff actions and even customer details.

Produce Reports At Point-Of-Sale
With just a couple of quick keystrokes and you can see exactly how your store is doing at any point in time–Windward System Five updates your stock inventory with each transaction, so you always know what’s on lay-away, what’s on order, and what your best-selling items are.

Colour & Size Matrix
Clothing Stores have special needs, such that they enter a style or stock number such as JE1716 for a particular style. But the problem is the manufacturer supplies the JE1716 Jeans in different colours and sizes. Windward System Five has a clothing matrix option that automatically allows the user to enter a matrix of all the colours and sizes that the store will carry.

The system will automatically track the JE716 item by creating sub items of itself. For example; JE1716-SIL-30 and JE1716-BON-30 are created from the matrix, and each item is tracked with it's own cost and selling price for sales and ordering.

Manage Stock
Create and maintain a detailed stock inventory, while simplifying the ordering, receiving and labeling of stock. Identify slower stock and get it moving – and ensure your best sellers are always in stock.

General Retail Pricing
This pricing system allows a standard retail price to be entered, but if more than a certain quantity are sold, it can be set up to automatically use a discount price(s). In addition, you can place items on sale between two given dates, and have a separate set of sale and discount prices.
