Multi-branch management
In one sentenceThe system's ability to manage several branches or warehouses of one business, each with its own inventory, sales and reports, together with a consolidated picture of the whole business.
Simply put
With more than one branch you need to see each branch on its own and the business as a whole: the balance of each item in each branch, each branch's profitability, and the transfers between them.
A system that supports branches well links them to one set of books, so you do not add up branch figures by hand at the end of the month.
Example
The owner of three pharmacies sees that an item has run out in one branch while piling up in another, so he transfers the quantity between them instead of buying again, then compares the profitability of the three branches in one report.
Don't confuse it with
Profit centerA profit center is an accounting concept for measuring performance, and multi-branch is a system capability that makes it easier to apply.
