Oracle Retail Item Planning supports the entire lifecycle of an item by providing pre- and in-season workflow that gives you continuous visibility into sales, inventories, and profits—allowing you to avoid lost sales due to inadequate inventory and overstocks that drain profits.
- View sales history, actualized weekly sales, and unconstrained forecasts to support better, more accurate planning.
- Proactively manage in-season items, resulting in fewer lost sales, excessive markdowns, and unprofitable exit strategies.
- Plan receipt flow down to the weekly level to maximize return on inventory investment.
- Ensure that bottom-up item plans reconcile with top-down financial plans, preventing overstocks.
- Plan across all distribution channels, including stores, Web, and catalog.
- Incorporate item demand forecast from Oracle Retail Demand Forecasting and financial targets from Oracle Retail Merchandise Financial Planning.
