SAP Retail processes enable to control and co-ordinate the whole value chain, and thus react swiftly to changes in consumer behavior. The key retail processes include:

Assortment Management
Assortment allows you to create merchandise assortments and
assortment modules and assign articles to them. Articles can be automatically assigned directly to assortments as a result of checking rules during article maintenance or assortment maintenance functions. Alternatively, you can manually assign articles to assortment modules and then in turn assign the modules to assortments.

Requirement Planning and Purchasing
Requirements planning are to guarantee material availability that is used to procure the requirement quantities on time both for internal purposes and for sales and distribution. This process involves the monitoring of stocks and, in particular, the automatic creation of procurement proposals for purchasing.

• Procurement of Replenishable Merchandise
• Procurement of Nonreplenishable Merchandise

Allocation
Retailers often have to centrally distribute merchandise among a large
number of recipients (for example, stores). You can have the merchandise delivered directly from the vendor to the recipient, from the vendor to a distribution center and then to the recipient, or from a distribution center to a recipient.

Goods Receipt
The process supports goods receipt in stores with reference and with out reference to any system documents. Similarly it allows to process return
deliveries with reference to purchase order and deliveries.

Invoice Verification
The logistics invoice verification is a part of the material management component of SAP ERP. The verification checks the receipt invoice’s
accurate content, prices, and calculations. When the invoice is posted, SAP ERP saves the information and updates the data in the material management component and in Finance.

Warehouse Management, Picking and Delivery
With warehouse management optimize warehouse activities – including inbound and outbound processing, facility management and storage and physical inventory

Store Supply
The merchandise distribution functions of SAP ERP enable to carry out the distribution process efficiently from the planning stage right through to shipping the merchandise.
