Grangetto's Farm and Garden Supply, a four-location agricultural retailer in northern San Diego County, upgraded from a custom-programmed UNIX system to Epicor Eagle in 2005. The implementation enabled cycle counting, eliminated annual physical inventories, and supported offline POS transactions during outages. Real-time dashboards in Business Advisor gave managers daily sales visibility and year-over-year comparisons, while multi-location inventory transfers reduced slow-moving stock and improved turns.

Key takeaways

Cycle counting replaced annual physical inventory counts while keeping stores open year-round

Offline POS capability maintained transaction processing during power or system outages

Multi-store inventory visibility enabled transfers of slow movers to higher-velocity locations

Business Advisor dashboards delivered daily sales-to-goal tracking and profitability metrics

Open architecture allowed customization for California sales tax rules without heavy custom code
