Store Commerce Activation: Store Inventory Management and Order Fulfillment Services Software

Manhattan Associates’ Store Commerce Activation software enables retail stores to improve store inventory management by increasing inventory accuracy, acknowledging and accepting order fulfillment requests, and executing order fulfillment directly in the store. Store associates can see and locate both on-hand and in-flight inventory at any point in the supply chain, track the status of their orders, and proactively monitor delivery disruptions.

Store Commerce Activation provides powerful mobile inventory management and order fulfillment capabilities as well. Whether you’re a retail associate managing inventory or a store manager monitoring key tasks, you can easily oversee daily retail inventory management functions from a handheld device, keeping your key resources on the selling floor where they are most productive.

When fulfilling orders from the store, Store Commerce Activation also provides store-level parcel shipping execution. It is fully integrated with parcel carriers via a web service-based methodology, so you can create and track shipments and obtain proof of delivery information—all within one seamless user experience.

Store Commerce Activation offers benefits in three key areas: store inventory management, store order management and store order fulfillment.
