DezemberHub is an ERP system with POS for shoe retail. The system maps size runs with widths, half sizes and colour variants as a matrix, imports supplier master data automatically via the ECC, and controls pre-order, goods receipt and markdowns at the end of the season. This includes a TSE-compliant, offline-capable POS. The base fee starts at €50 per month, each simultaneously running POS terminal costs €50 extra. The number of locations, employees and store revenue play no role. Selling online via schuhe.de, Zalando and other channels is an optional, usage-based add-on.

We know your daily routine

Shoe retail is different. Your software should know that.

Many systems treat a shoe like any other product. Yet the real work lies in the details that only your industry has.

Managing size runs

One model, three colors, two widths, fifteen sizes: anyone who has to manage that as individual items loses hours per delivery.

Pre-ordering months in advance

You order in February what will be on the shelf in autumn. Without a system, order dates, quantities, and delivery dates end up in lists outside your ERP.

End-of-season markdowns

Full price, reduced price, clearance sale: markdowns are part of the business. They should be traceable in the system, not just on sticky labels.

Returns due to size exchanges

The most common return in shoe retail is not an exchange due to dissatisfaction, but a different size. Your reports should be able to distinguish between the two.

Master data from associations and suppliers

EANs, size keys, and prices come from many sources in many formats. Anyone who types them in manually introduces errors and wastes time.

Multiple locations, one inventory

Size 42 is at the other location? The system should know that before the customer walks out.

Industry features in detail

Everything a shoe store needs. Built in, not bolted on.

Sizes × widths × colors as a matrix

You create one style, and the system knows the complete size run, also known in the industry as a size grid or size chart. Half sizes, widths from F to K and colour variants are included, without you maintaining 40 individual items. The size and width matrix shows every combination with its own inventory.

UK and US sizes converted automatically

International brands deliver in UK or US sizes. DezemberHub converts them so the correct size is always shown on the shelf and at the POS.

Master data from ECC, automatically

EANs, size keys, colours and prices from your suppliers come directly into the system via the clearing center (ECC). New styles are created in minutes, not hours.

Pre-order and season management built in

Collections, order quantities and delivery dates of your seasonal goods live in the system. At goods receipt, DezemberHub knows what was ordered, and you handle end-of-season markdowns in the system instead of in Excel lists. Season and NOS management is included: you flag NOS items separately and continue them independently of the season change.

Size exchange as a dedicated return reason

A 41 comes back, a 42 goes out: that is everyday business in shoe retail, and in DezemberHub it is its own dedicated transaction. Your reports show what came back and why.

Inter-store transfers and stock relocation

Branch and warehouse management shows the inventory of all locations at a glance, and you move goods directly from the system to where they sell. Rule-based stock transfer suggestions balance minimum and maximum stock levels per size and location, and the decision stays with you. Stocktaking via barcode scanner runs per location in the browser, without tally sheets. Locations cost nothing extra.

Buying group goods and the clearing center

Buying groups such as ANWR and SABU shape brick-and-mortar shoe retail in Germany. Master data and EDI messages typically run through the clearing center: suppliers provide EANs, size keys and prices there, and retailers retrieve them. The automatic import of this ECC master data is part of DezemberHub's standard scope. The ECC/EDI integration also processes the BTE data formats PRICAT and ORDRSP.

POS in the shoe store

The POS keeps running. Even when the internet is down.

  • Fast checkout: scan the box, process the sale, done. Even during the Christmas rush when the queue stretches to the door.
  • Offline-capable: if the connection drops, you keep selling. As soon as the internet is back, everything syncs automatically.
  • TSE-compliant and audit-proof: the legal requirements are built in, you do not have to worry about a thing.
  • Size exchanges directly at the POS: same shoe, different size, one transaction. Inventory is updated instantly.

Legally compliant checkout

POS, tax office and accounting

Since the Cash Register Security Ordinance (KassenSichV), the TSE requirement applies: every POS in a shoe store needs a certified technical security device. In DezemberHub this is built in, every receipt is signed via the TSE and receipt issuance is standard. All postings are documented in a GoBD-compliant way.

TSE requirement under KassenSichV

The technical security device signs every receipt. The legal requirements are built in, you do not have to take care of anything. The integrated TSE POS uses a certified cloud TSE, it is included in the POS price and renews automatically, so TSE replacement is eliminated. More about TSE replacement →

DSFinV-K export for the cash register audit

If the tax office shows up in your store for a cash register audit, the DSFinV-K export is ready in the prescribed format.

GoBD-compliant documentation

All POS postings are documented in a GoBD-compliant and traceable way, without you having to set anything up.

DATEV export for your tax advisor

The end-of-day closing guides you through the cash count and Z-report, and the figures end up in the reports and in the DATEV export for your tax advisor.

When you want to, not because you have to

Online selling, optional. Your store stays the center.

Your goods are already in the system, every size individually in stock. If you want, they go online via multichannel to schuhe.de, Zalando, Amazon and more than 50 other channels, and an online shop integration with Shopware, Shopify or WooCommerce is included too. Inventory syncs automatically so you never sell a size that is no longer there.

50+

Marketplace integration from day one

schuhe.de, Zalando, Amazon, eBay, Otto, and many more. You choose what fits your business.

Usage-based

Online selling as an add-on

Optional and purely usage-based. You only pay for what you sell online. Request your individual quote.
