Most items can simply be scanned at the register, but sometimes you may wish to look up items in other ways.
For selling gloves, we can put them in a color/size matrix. The grid makes it easy to find the right pair.
You can also look up an item by description
Typing in "Candle" brought us to our item
Attach notes to items for suggestive selling reminders. They are also handy for reminding employees to include warranty papers or to let customers know of up coming classes.

You can add pictures, too!
The Lookup button lets you look for an item in a variety of ways
Enter in any part of the item description
Select the correct item
You can use the Lookup screen to search for items by a price range, too. Or print a report of all items that match the criteria you select.
If a customer calls in wanting to know if you have any bicycles between $50 - $100, you can quickly let them know what bicycles you have in that price range. 
Select the Bicycle category
Now select the price range. You can even create more detailed searches by selecting a size and/or color
You have 1 style of  bicycles in stock that match the criteria. 
Before you can sell a serialized item, you will need to add a customer's name.
Premier will automatically prompt your employees for the customer's name when selling Serialized items, Special Orders, Work Orders, In House Customer Charges, and for taking a Layaway
Type in part of the name or telephone number to bring up a scroll list of all of your customers. 

You may also look up customers by their customer number. 
Premier will bring you to the closest name or telephone number that was entered.

You can even merge customers that have more than one listing!
You can set up Customer Rewards, Price Level Discounts, Charge Limits, Notes, and Contact Information for each customer.
When scanning a serialized item, the serial number will come up automatically. But when you are manually selling a serialized item, a scroll box will show the available serialized bicycles available for this item number.

PURCHASING MANAGEMENT
Purchasing Management can save you hours of time with your purchasing. Based on item Min's and Max's (re-order levels and how many you wish to keep on the shelf), you will know what items you will need to order, and how many to order. 

If you do not wish to track items by Min's and Max's, you can manually add the items and quantities to a Purchase Order, or use one of our hand-held units to scan items and upload them to a Purchase Order. 
Select your season. Premier offers Seasonal Ordering so you are ordering the right items at the right time of year. 
Select vendor. You can look at all items to order, or by individual vendors. 
As you scroll down the items, you will see item information here
You will also see other vendors that you can order this item from and compare pricing
This item can be purchased for a few cents less from another vendor. A few cents can add up to a lot of money by comparing prices on all of the items you order.
Simply highlight a vendor to change your order
Then click OK

No more overstocks and shortages during their peak season and slow season.
