I wanted to pick everyone’s brain on a functionality that has been raised by one of my prospective clients for AX 2012 Retail and that is for Bridal Registry.
I was after confirmation on my thoughts on how I could see this potentially working for them – since there is no direct functionality from within POS screen.
So I was thinking what if we were to use “quotes” as part of this functionality to draft up the bridal registry list. Raise the quote against the couple’s name (who are getting married), and add my list of items to this quote. As the people go into the store and buy the gifts, I could have the shop assistant bring up the quote for the customer and simply just select the item they wished to sell. The only thing I do not know is whether this will impact on inventory levels because sometimes the customer might decide to do delivery which means the items would be in a holding area in the warehouse until a week or two before the close/expiry date of the bridal registry whereby at this point all items waiting to be shipped get delivered to the customer’s home address.
The only other impact I could think of here is how we could integrate this so that customers could access the list online? I do not know technically whether this is possible? If we were to not think about the AX2012 Retail aspect of this – would this functionality be supported at all through perhaps Enterprise Portal the way vendors log in and view their orders?
I would appreciate any other ideas
Thanks
