What DezemberHub covers on the usual selection criteria

Ten criteria usually decide the choice of ERP system in shoe and fashion retail. Here is how DezemberHub does:

Size and width matrix
The size and width matrix with size grid and widths is an integral part of the ERP system.
Season and NOS management
Season management and NOS flagging are included directly in the ERP system.
ECC master data and BTE formats
Item master data flows in via the ECC by EAN or supplier GLN plus item number, along with images and purchase and retail prices; the BTE formats PRICAT and ORDRSP are processed.
Stock transfer and order suggestions
Stock transfer suggestions balance the branches on a rule basis via minimum and maximum stock levels per size and location, complemented by order suggestions per location and item; the retailer makes the decision.
Integrated POS with cloud TSE
The cloud TSE is included in the monthly POS price and renews automatically; a TSE replacement is no longer needed at all.
marketplace connection
Amazon, Zalando, Otto and other marketplaces are directly connected to the ERP system.
DATEV export
You export accounting data via DATEV export for the tax advisor.
Stocktaking via barcode scanner
Stocktaking also runs in the browser via barcode scanner, on any device with standard commercial scanners.
Support with SLA
Support is available daily from 9 am to 7 pm, and guaranteed response times from 4 hours are set out as an SLA in the terms and conditions.
Branches and employees
Branches and employees are unlimited from the Business plan upwards, and the number of locations does not affect the price.

To be fair: anyone who has been on the market for decades has a large installed base and special processes for individual customers grown over the years. DezemberHub instead deliberately relies on standardized workflows, modern architecture and a fast rollout. If you need highly individual special workflows, raise this in a conversation beforehand.
