Stockrooms that answer back
The sales floor has a planogram. The backroom usually has someone's memory. TracStor gives every bay, shelf and tote in the stockroom an exact address, so any associate can put product away and find it again in seconds, on the phones they already carry.
16%of items in the stores studied couldn't be found by shoppers because they were misplaced.

How it works
- Address every spot. Lay out the stockroom as nested places and a floor plan; print a QR label for every bay, shelf and tote, or use NFC tags.
- Put stock away. Scan the tote, then scan, say or photograph what goes in.
- Find it. Search by name, SKU or keyword and get the full path, down to the tote.
- Keep it right. Count one location at a time; every move has a history; export as CSV.
Where it helps
- “Do you have it in the back?”, answered while the customer waits
- Receiving and overstock put-away to known locations
- Pickup orders found on the first try
