Triggered Messages
The system can initiate messages automatically in response to user operations both by head office and the point of sale. Triggered messages such as ship merchandise to/from store(s) and/or pick up from store(s) are automatically sent to the location complete with links to the transaction and items.
Rich Type Attachments
User’s will be able to attach invoices, pos, product images/ information, receipts and also pictures of live transactions in their messages. There are no limitations to the size of text messages and/or attachments.
New Message/Read Receipt
Easily identifiable upon login, the user will automatically notice a “new message” waiting as the message box is highlighted with a blue border.
There is no need to receive a read receipt notice. Each user has its own individual status. If the message has not been read it will have an envelope icon indicating the message has not been opened or read beside the recipient’s name. If the message has been read the icon will simply disappear.
Superior Service
Store associates will be able to better serve their customers by having real-time accurate information. Message notifications on customer web orders to be picked up in store, ship from store, special orders, account status and much more can be pushed directly to the store and/or associate allowing for superior customer service. Relevant messages specific to a customer can also be leveraged to up-sell and cross-sell, ultimately driving profitability.
