The Challenge
Common data entry automation challenges facing retail & e-commerce businesses.
Manually entering new product SKUs, descriptions and pricing across Shopify, POS and accounting systems
Stock received in store not updated in the online shop for hours or days, causing overselling
Supplier invoices requiring manual matching to purchase orders and updating of landed cost calculations
Returns and exchanges requiring manual adjustment across multiple platforms to keep inventory accurate
Implementation
How we implement data entry automation for your retail & e-commerce business.
Capture Product and Transaction Data
Automatically extract product details, pricing, quantities and supplier information from purchase orders, packing slips, invoices and returns documentation. Data is captured from email, PDF and scanned document sources.
- ✓ Tools: OCR Engine, Email Parser, Shopify
Validate Against Product Catalogue and Pricing
Each entry is validated against the current SKU catalogue, approved supplier pricing and promotional pricing rules. Duplicate SKUs, pricing errors and unrecognised products are flagged before entering the inventory system.
- ✓ Tools: Validation Rules Engine, Shopify, Square
Update Inventory and Sales Systems
Validated data synchronises across POS, ecommerce platform and accounting software. Stock receipts update available inventory across all sales channels, and supplier invoices flow directly to accounts payable.
- ✓ Tools: Shopify, Square, Xero
Generate Inventory and Sales Reports
Automated reporting tracks stock levels, sell-through rates, supplier lead times and margin performance by SKU. Reorder alerts trigger when stock falls below defined thresholds across any channel.
- ✓ Tools: Power BI, Google Sheets, Shopify Analytics
