“Fantastic!”
“With distributed order management software, we’ll be able to implement logic that factors in the location of the inventory that’s selling the slowest and route orders to that location for fulfillment. The money we save from reduced mark-downs will offset any additional shipping costs resulting in higher-margin sales across the board.”

Is your eCommerce return period longer than your in-store period to account for shipping? Or are all of your return policies consistent?
Changes to Return Policies May Impact Revenue Recognition
* Consider the fact that CFOs look at historical return data to estimate sales returns. If this cannot be reasonably estimated, the sale might not be recognized until after the return period ends.
The Rise of Omni-Channel Poses Challenges Related to Attribution $$
Attribution is challenging in an omni-channel environment: ➤ How do retailers credit an omni-channel sale? ➤ How do retailers decide which channels to invest in?➤ How do retailers track web-influenced sales?
Order management software helps retailers: ➤ Identify the source of a sale➤ Credit the store that originated the search instead of the store
that supplied the inventory
But there are other factors to consider: ➤ Volume goals of each store➤ Incentive programs and compensation
