Almost all businesses can benefit from an ERP solution. ERP software is designed to help the flow of internal business processes and allow for communication between the various business departments and their internal functions and data. Most companies use many software tools and systems to run their business resulting in redundant work, poor communication, ineffective collaboration, lack of access to accurate, real-time data, and other costly issues. Moving to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metaoption.com\/dynamics-365-business-central\/?utm_source=MO&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=LS%20Central&amp;utm_term=Retail%20BP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">ERP solution<\/a> can help resolve many of these issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metaoption.com\/ls-central-retail-management-solution-pos\/?utm_source=MO&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=LS%20Central&amp;utm_term=Retail%20BP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">LS Central<\/a>&nbsp;is a fully integrated retail management solution built on Dynamics 365 Business Central. By using it instead of many, you can cut software and system administration costs, say goodbye to integration costs, have consistent financial data, control prices, simplify and speed up upgrades, and access all your&nbsp;business information&nbsp;as and when you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\" class=\"has-text-color has-very-dark-gray-color\">Here\u2019s a summary of the new functionality of LS Central for&nbsp;full Retail Management:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Improvements\nto statement calculation and posting<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We have substantially improved and optimized the performance\nof the&nbsp;<strong>statement calculation and posting<\/strong>&nbsp;functionality.\nWe have refactored the process for replication counter updates. This resolves\npossible deadlock issues during statement calculation and posting. Now you can\nalso&nbsp;<strong>automatically create and calculate statements<\/strong>&nbsp;for\nstores in an incremental way, and perform&nbsp;<strong>statements\nbatch posting in parallel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reduce the wait for the end-of-day calculation with automation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now set up the system to&nbsp;<strong>automatically create and calculate statements<\/strong>&nbsp;for\nstores. The statements will be&nbsp;<strong>calculated incrementally<\/strong>,\nwith each calculation only including new transactions. This way the calculation\ntime can be spread across the business day,&nbsp;<strong>minimizing the waiting time for the last\ncalculation of the day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Offers\ntotal channel integration<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>LS Central offers&nbsp;<strong>total channel integration<\/strong>. This means you can track sales, stock and productivity live on all your channels. Get a holistic view of your customers, orders, business, and marketing\u2013and always be on top of all activities taking place in-store, on the e-commerce platform, and on mobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reduce\nstatement posting time with parallel posting<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now post the statements in the batch posting\nqueue&nbsp;<strong>in parallel, with multiple sessions<\/strong>.\nDefine in the setup how many statements you\u2019d like to post in parallel, and LS\nCentral will spin up the needed background sessions to work on the statement\nposting. Depending on your server\u2019s specification, this can&nbsp;<strong>reduce the total statement posting time<\/strong>&nbsp;tremendously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Use a dual-display through the LS Central AppShell<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When you start LS Central through the LS Central AppShell, Windows version, you can now access&nbsp;support for a dual display. <strong>Enable the dual-display<\/strong> in the Terminal card, and it will start automatically, opening by default on the secondary screen. A dual display can be useful to show information on the customer-facing screen. For example, you can show the POS journal with the total amount to pay or display advertising videos when the POS is offline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Configure\nkeyboard shortcuts for POS commands<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also now trigger <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.metaoption.com\/ls-central-retail-management-solution-pos\/?utm_source=MO&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=LS%20Central&amp;utm_term=Retail%20BP\" target=\"_blank\">POS commands<\/a> and button clicks via keyboard shortcuts.
