Loss Prevention Analyzer

RTC’s Loss Prevention Analyzer (LPA) provides an easy-to-use, browser based tool to help monitor and eliminate cashier theft through the use of “exception transactions”.

LPA is part of RTC’s MMSxTend Application Suite and is designed to be used in conjunction with JDA’s MMS® Sales Audit. By utilizing the detail data captured in the sales audit process, the LPA database can be used to inquire and report on user refined “red flag” transactions at all levels within the company hierarchy. The point & click interface is extremely easy to use and learn. LPA is available at a very affordable price and can quickly provide a solid Return on Investment (ROI).

Advanced Promotion Management

RTC’s Advanced Promotion Management (APM) module provides retailers running JDA® Merchandise Management System® (MMS®) with an automated promotion system that eliminates excessive discounting and helps retailers take their current promotional campaign beyond base Price Management parameters.

Campaigns can be set up for auto-apply, not requiring the presentation of a coupon. Campaign set up allows multiple selections of hierarchy, vendor, and item. APM eliminates double discounting by configuring campaigns to provide the item discount only if that item, within the transaction, has not already been discounted.

With easy to use screens, APM allows users to create multiple types of campaign benefit definitions in a campaign database including the ultimate “Buy X Get Y” Ex. (Buy any two DVDs and get a free bag of popcorn.)

APM Method Types:

Percent off everything
Percent off of purchase greater than dollar value
Percent off selection of items with limit
Dollars off selection of items with limit
Buy quantity of a specific SKU for a fixed price with limit

Buy a quantity of Mixed group of SKUs for a fixed price with limit
Buy quantity of a specific SKU and get a quantity of that SKU for a percentage off (Limited Quantity) (BOGO)
Buy quantity of mixed SKUs, get a quantity at equal or less value of the lowest price purchased for a percentage off (Limited Quantity)
Buy quantity of mixed SKUs in Group X and get a quantity of equal or less value of the lowest price purchased from Group Y (Buy X Get Y)

Dashboard Management Module

RTC’s Dashboard Management Module (DMM) helps improve the performance and management of JDA® MMS® software by monitoring critical systems and business indicators. DMM provides a set of visual gauges to spark management’s attention to potential problem areas and serves as an alternative to MMS’s alert capabilities that utilize advanced logging. DMM also provides a series of business gauges that can highlight areas where action may be required to optimize business results. The module is part of RTC’s MMSxTend Application Suite and is extremely easy to configure and use.

DMM allows authorized users the ability to drill into MMS on a daily basis, see details and address any problems from the indicator gauge. There is no need for staff to produce query reports to identify breakdowns.

DMM provides a quick view and highlights the indicators that fall outside of the customer-defined parameters. Indicators are presented in Green when acceptable, Yellow if within a defined cautionary range, and Red with in high alert range.
