GIN-1626

Local Procurement: Rate change allowed based on profile settings

Module:

Procurement → Operations → Goods In/Out→ Receipts/Returns

Scenario:

There are cases where rate in GRC are different from rate in Purchase Invoice and in such cases Entity/Brand want to edit the GRC to ensure proper COGS calculation. As in Ginesys COGS is impacted from GRC item rate and not from Purchase Invoice.

Currently, once the Local procurement documents are made and Authorized/Synced to POS sites, it can not be modified until it is reverted by the POS site. This process of reverting from the POS site/store and then editing it at HO is cumbersome.

Hence, we have provided an option in user profile under Procurement - “Allow GRC/GRT edit after release.“ Based on this option user can edit the Local procurement document even after Authorization and edited document will re-sync to POS sites.

GIN-1625

Negative stock check from Store Stock point

Module:

Procurement → Operations → Goods In/Out → Return

Inventory → Operations → Conversion → Production

Inventory → Operations → Conversion → Bundle

Inventory → Operations → Conversion → Split

Scenario:

Currently in Ginesys negative stock check is done for the Store Location and not for the store stock point which lead to store stock mismatch at stock point level.

Example to understand the current scenario

Store Location: Item A | 10 pcs where Godown stock point: Item A | 7 Pcs & Showroom stock point: Item A | 3 Pcs
In such a scenario system would not give negative stock error till the stock out is limited to 10 pcs, irrespective of the stock point stock.

Hence forth checking would be done at the store stockpoint level to ensure correctness of the stock.
Referring to the above example, if user try to stock out the item from Godown stock point, system would allow only to the extent of 7 Pcs, beyond that it will validate for negative stock check.

GIN-1628

Enhancement Summary:

  • The “Retail Management” menu has been renamed to “POS Management” because the name was confusing as all Retail related setup and transactions are not managed from this menu. For example, E-com Retail Sale Transactions are managed from Sales & Distribution menu.

  • Post OMS integration, multiple master and configuration forms had been created under Sales & Distribution → Setup. Since they relate purely to retail, we are moving it from Setup menu to Retail Sale menu. The "Retail Sale" menu has been more appropriately renamed to Retail. Now it would contain all transaction and master related to retail other than that of Ginesys POS site.


  • The POS Journal menu has been moved from Retail Management to Finance, because it is journal posting related to POS.
    The new path being - Finance → Operations → Retail Journals → POS Journal 

  • Currently all Gift Voucher sales related entries are shown under Retail Management → Gift Voucher → Manage → Voucher Sale, for both HO and POS sales. Henceforth we are segregating this in two menus to reflect the appropriate nature.

  1. Finance → Operations → Retail Journals → GV Journals

    1. All Gift voucher related journal entries would be shown here for both POS and HO.

  2. POS Management → Gift Voucher → Manage → Voucher Sale

    1. HO Voucher sale could be created from this menu (as-is behaviour)

    2. POS site GV sale entries would not be shown under this menu. It will be shown under Finance (as mentioned in above point)

GIN-1624

Provision for managing MPOS site

We have introduced a new menu in Ginesys ERP for Cloud MPOS Site from which user can create and manage MPOS sites.
Path: Sales & Distribution → Retail → Retail Store Master (Zwing) → Cloud MPOS site

Introduction of Connected app

Ginesys ERP has come up with a new and unique offering of integration with Cloud/Mobile POS. All the configuration for setting up the connection between the two applications is available in front end. For more details, please get in touch with your account manager.

Introduction of master to enable integration

1 ) Tender Master

Path: Sales & Distribution → Retail → Retail Store Master (Zwing) → Tender

We have introduced Tender only for the purpose of integration. For easy understanding it is like a MOP master for Ginesys POS site.

Intended use of the Tender master

Brands create multiple tenders that are used in the store such as Cash, Cheque, Promotion Voucher, Razor Pay, Credit Card etc. Purpose of creating multiple tender is to get tender wise accounting impact, so that settlement reconciliation could be done smoothly.

Tagging of GL/SL is mandatory while creating the master. Further if the brand wants to maintain store/site wise ledger for tenders, it is also possible. For that GL/SL tagging is required in connected app for respective site/store.

2 ) Income / Expense Master

Path: Sales & Distribution → Retail → Retail Store Master (Zwing) → Income / Expense

We have introduced Income/Expense only for the purpose of integration. For easy understanding it is like a Petty Cash head for Desktop POS site.

Intended use of the Income/Expense Master

This master will be used for managing petty cash transactions at store/site level. In petty cash transaction one leg is Cash as a tender and other is either Income/Expense head.

Brand/Enterprise can define the GL/SL for each head in the connected app for respective store/site.

Event will fail when received by cloud POS. This creates a stock mismatch scenario. User will have to redo another transaction to reverse the stock impact - that transaction will also fail in cloud POS. Though the stock will be corrected after manual entry, these 2 transactions will not be available in cloud POS reports.

Business case handling
Conversion should be done for cloud POS only when both issue and receive items exists, else use adjustment option in cloud POS for such cases."
