Microsoft Dynamics RMS™ Headquarters is implemented centrally, with Microsoft Dynamics RMS Store Operations in each business location. Data from the stores and warehouses are synchronized regularly to the RMS Headquarters database; providing near real-time data access for your head office management team.
Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System uses Headquarters Remote Client and Headquarters Communications Server programs to connect locations over the Internet using broadband, dial-up, or VPN (virtual private network) links. The Headquarters Manager program supports retailers with worksheets and other functionality to manage inventories, procedures, suppliers, prices, costs, customer data and more, for all stores, a single store, or a group of them.
Microsoft Dynamics RMS uses a unique communications methodology to share data across your retail chain. Each RMS store has it’s own independent POS system with it’s own database thus ensuring that your stores can operate reliably, no matter what happens to the Head Office connection.
At corporate Headquarters, Microsoft Dynamics RMS Headquarters duplicates each store’s database so that your management team has access to detailed transaction-level data for up-to-date reporting and analysis. Each store connects to Head Office as often as you like - daily, hourly, even more frequently if your communications architecture can support it.
This combination of redundant databases and frequent synchronizations to head office make Microsoft Dynamics RMS the most reliable and cost-effective retail chain system available in the industry; plus you get near real-time data for your management team; instead of reports that are weeks old by the time they are compiled.
