Vision Planning

Vision Planning integrates the functions of merchandise, financial, and assortment planning into one powerful tool that centralizes all data for a single, consistent, enterprise-wide view of planned versus actual performance. With Vision Planning, quickly distribute your Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) down to all levels of inventory, enabling your merchants to make better buying decisions, perform quick analysis and identify problems before they occur.

A robust top-down, bottom-up, and middle-out reconciliation process allows quick and easy formulation of “what if” scenarios. Vision Planning manages multiple plans in parallel allowing you to evaluate aggressive versus conservative plan objectives. Each plan has associated security roles, an audit trail, and a structured plan approval process.

Build an appropriate, profitable assortment, in both breadth and depth, using Vision Planning’s integrated assortment module. Assemble the right amount of placeholders for each store type and refine the detail using user-defined attributes to review assortment by time period, collection, theme, vendor, or any element that supports your individual buying process. Vision Planning gives your business instant visibility to future collections, down to an individual store basis. Once assortment details are completed, Vision Planning can automatically populate purchase orders, avoiding re-entry of data and streamlining the whole buying process.
