Common transaction sets leveraged by Velocity include the following:
- EDI 852 - Point of Sale (POS) and Inventory Activity
- EDI 867 - Warehouse Withdrawls
- EDI 816 - Store Lists
- EDI 830 - Plan or Forecast Information
Velocity collects and organizes all that EDI information and consolidates it with information from other data sources. At that point, a centralized Demand Signal Repository (DSR) is ready for perusal and analysis. Velocity users mine the data to reveal previously unknown patterns in consumer sales trends, inventory sell-through and overall store-level profitability. Velocity delivers insights that have a real impact on business performance, right now and in the future, such as:
- Which stores are low on stock to support sales for the next 10 days?
- What are my top selling stores by style and color?
- Is the new product on the shelves?
- How are our planograms performing by store type?
- How did our ad perform by market?
- Where are my sales below plan?
- What are the top selling regions by sales rep.?
- Is age or race a factor in sales?
- Where do SSO's need to be generated?
