Delivering a Consistent Customer Experience Across Shopping Channels

Key SAP Projects Completed

SAP Fiori Apps. From sales channels and prices to stock management and customer ratings, a number of SAP Fiori apps have been introduced to Smyths Toys to enhance business productivity. The development of SAP Fiori apps is leading to a dramatically improved user acceptance of SAP with many processes simplified and improvements in data accuracy. Key users now have mobile access to accurate information to support them in their day to day activities.

Price Ticketing has been rolled out to all stores. The new price labelling app delivers greater accuracy of pricing and ensures a single price entity across the stock with capability for real-time price-match offers.

Automatic Warehouse Replenishment (AWR). The new AWR process ensures the stores are stocked overnight before opening time.

Stores Stock Maintenance. The new stock process allows staff within the stores to perform a stock adjustment via their in-store RF device. This is an important enhancement that ensures accurate stock information in the stores.

Pre-Order Management. Provides visibility of preorders within the stores and integrates Smyths Toys digital channels to in-store operations – providing guaranteed stock availability that integrates seamlessly with the ‘click and collect’ programme.

Click & Collect. Since the stock maintenance and preorder management projects went live, Click & Collect orders are now successfully processed in stores.

Rob Wilson, Chief Technology Officer, Smyths Toys commented “Our click & collect service is proving to be very successful with improvements in stock accuracy and visibility, which is leading to reductions in stock holding and stock turn.”
