Apparel Software - Product/Apparel Matrix


Apparel industry innovation dramatically improves the management of inventory that comprises Styles, Colours and Sizes

Anyone who works with clothing, shoes, sporting goods and similar products knows the inherent complication of dealing with large numbers of products that are similar, yet need to be tracked separately.

One style, in 5 colours and 8 sizes, generates 40 discrete products for inventory tracking purposes. Managing this inventory effectively can guarantee the distributor time savings, cut costs and increase opportunities to generate revenue.

This unique, purpose-built Apparel software matrix automates and streamlines the management of products and orders by providing purpose-built tools such as:

  • Product Generation Wizard
  • Order Entry Matrix
  • Purchasing Grid

You always have the option of switching back and forth between the matrix and traditional order entry modes if you require.
