PathGuide Advanced VMI Description
VMI, which stands for "vendor managed inventory," is a system designed to streamline inventory management. When a customer's stock levels dip below a certain threshold, PathGuide’s Advanced VMI automatically generates a replenishment order. This order is sent to the vendor electronically, where it is usually confirmed, selected, packaged, and dispatched back to the customer. Furthermore, Advanced VMI can initiate automatic advanced shipping notifications, providing customers with crucial information to prepare for the arrival of their shipments. PathGuide’s Advanced VMI operates independently for distributors' clients or as an integrated feature of a warehouse management system (WMS). This innovation ensures that orders are placed with unprecedented speed, simplicity, and efficiency, particularly benefiting customers who frequently purchase the same items. Overall, the system enhances supply chain operations by minimizing downtime and maintaining optimal inventory levels.

Scotch is a comprehensive operating system tailored specifically for liquor retailers, integrating liquor-focused point of sale (POS), payment processing, back office functions, inventory management, ordering, receiving, analytics, and customer engagement tools into one cohesive platform. More than just a typical POS system, Scotch is designed to meet the operational needs of bottle shops, wine retailers, beer outlets, and liquor stores, accommodating features like case breaks, handling distributor invoices, managing thousands of SKUs, working with multiple suppliers, ensuring age verification, enabling offline sales, and providing real-time inventory tracking. By streamlining transactions, the POS system allows staff to complete sales more quickly, enroll customers on the spot, manage rewards programs, facilitate split payments, ensure secure transactions, and maintain customer flow even during internet outages. Furthermore, Scotch automatically monitors parent-child inventory relationships, meaning that selling any quantity—be it a single bottle, a six-pack, or an entire case—instantly updates all related inventory types without the need for manual inputs or end-of-day reconciliation processes. This efficiency ultimately enhances the overall shopping experience for both retailers and their customers alike.
