Many of the existing Point of Sale software programs on the market right now have the ability to send orders electronically directly to your suppliers. Many of the suppliers in the industry also have shopping carts on their websites that allow you to place orders on-line.
I was wondering how many of the forum folks take advantage of this electronic capability, whether it be directly out of your POS system or using the shopping cart. What are the advantages of doing so? What are the reasons you choose not to use the capability of you dont?
There is more to this question, as most of you probably guess, I'm just trying to get a sense of why the retailers in the industry do or do not use electronic ordering if that capability exists, and what some of the +/- may be.
