Favor International came to IRMCS for a software solution to replace their existing accounting POS software which has inadequate inventory control and limitations. 

For the business to grow further without restriction, Favor also needed to improve its operational efficiency with one software platform for its wholesale, online store, and retail department.

IRMCS was the choice of Favor International as Aralco Retail Systems is able to unify all its business channels and has many ready features to fulfill the majority of its complex requirements.

Here are some of Aralco's features that fit perfectly into Favor International's requirements:

Real-time data access from back office to front office

User-definable UOM for Purchase, Inventory & Sell unit 

Kit set - assembling a new product made up of existing SKU/s from inventory at hand

Definable quantity discount pricing for any product

Centralized CRM with promotion functions

Wholesale invoicing for corporate customers

Sale Orders, Quotation, Accounts Receivable

Interface options for:

- Closed Cash Management
- Electronic Shelf Label (ESL)
- Integrating E-commerce with the main retail database

Long Product Name

Another essential feature that thrills Favor International is the capability of Aralco Retail systems in supporting more than 200 characters to describe a product - a long description for product name is required to identify each packaging product clearly by materials, grammage, dimension, etc. 

The shelf labels generated by Aralco provide multiple lines for printing long product names - the print area for the long product name on the label can be configured to have 3 or more lines depending on the size of the label.

Aralco Retail Management and POS Systems went live successfully on schedule.

Integrated Closed Cash Management

The Aralco POS terminal is interfaced with Cashguard Closed Cash Systems at the retail department. Payments by currency note and coins are inserted and recycled - any change is automatically dispensed to the customers.

Cashiers no longer need to count float monies, cash tendered /change, and the cash takings at the end of a shift giving rise to accuracy and productivity.

Integration with Shopify

Aralco's central SQL Database is integrated with Pack Everything's Shopify platform via a custom API bridge for real-time syncing of products, inventory, orders, and customer data to and fro Shopify and Aralco.

With the e-commerce integrated with Aralco API, the content and order management are automated in Shopify, resulting in high productivity and data accuracy.

TIERED PRICING ON QUANTITY PURCHASED 

Besides standard shopping pages, the tiered pricing known as Quantity Discount Groups in Aralco is made available on Shopify in a grid format to enable organized reading and comparison of discounted pricing and saving.

PRE-ORDER & CUSTOM PACKAGING PRODUCTS ON SHOPIFY

Besides regular products, since 1975, Pack Everything has been offering pre-orders and customization of packaging products to their customers.

These important services were included in the API development and frontend web design, and we successfully deliver these options on Shopify.  Lead times, MOQ, dimensions, and pricing are automatically synced from the Aralco API and listed clearly on Shopify.

In addition, a Custom Packaging Inquiry Form on Shopify is also made available for customers to submit bespoke packaging requirements.

The Shopify's integration project was managed by IRMCS, launched live without any glitches.
