A retailer's most important asset is its inventory. Oracle Retail Allocation helps retailers determine the inventory requirements at the item, store, or warehouse, and week level using real time inventory information. The system calculates individual store or warehouse need based on parameters you set - whether it's the characteristics of the product, the location, or the category. The result is an allocation tailored to each destination location's unique need.
Oracle Retail Allocation allows you to allocate either in advance of the order's arrival or at the last minute to leverage real-time sales and inventory information. And when you do allocate, the system provides you the flexibility of basing your allocation on different methods such as: merchandise plans, sales history or a demand forecast.
