The Conversion ProcessData Sources for Conversion
The conversion process can vary widely based upon the available data from your present accounting system. The goal of the conversion process is to transfer all possible data to the new system and not require any additional posting activity by the store.
TransActPOS MultiVert, an application developed by Profile Systems Design Group, Inc., converts the following systems to a TransActPOS data set:
TransActPOS can load items automatically into the inventory during the point-of-sale activities, purchase order creation, and electronic order confirmations from your communicating vendor(s) if your store does not have a computer system currently.
This system's core functionality is based upon the TransActPOS Electronic Catalog feature. In short, a vendor’s inventory offering can be imported by you into the Electronic Catalog and used as the source of details when adding items to the TransActPOS inventory. Additionally, processing a physical inventory within the TransActPOS Wireless application automatically adds items to your inventory. As you can see, several utilities are present to assist with establishing your inventory quickly and accurately.
Data conversion processes are typically performed on-site via a remote connection to a system within our computer network and completed within a few hours. A detailed discussion regarding your store’s data clarifies the results of the process.
