XKS Enterprise Retail System

In 1999, XKS became the owners of the Enterprise Retail System developed by the IT Department of a UK Supermarket chain with 800+ outlets. Although the System included Modules for Warehouse Management, Finance and Payroll, XKS has concentrated its efforts on updating the Modules most likely to be required by a modern-day Retailer: -

  • Buying and Merchandising
  • Warehouse Replenishment
  • Store Replenishment
  • Store Polling

The System has been designed to run on IBM’s iSeries Server, with its built-in Operating System, DB2 database and Security, and its reputation for reliability and ease of application integration.

The System is suited to any size Retailer where Central Management, Analysis and Reporting of Information, is required.


Some of the benefits of using these Modules include: -

  • Designed by Retailers for Retailers
  • Scalable – one or many Products, Suppliers, Warehouses and Stores
  • Improved data accuracy – managed centrally
  • Improved Replenishment – driven from Sales data
  • Reduced costs – through improved Replenishment & automated processes
  • Integration with Warehouse Management and Finance
