Multi-Site FTP
allows stores to share and exchange information using the Internet.
Whether you have two locations or thousands, Multi-Site FTP
allows all your stores to work as part of a team.
The following information can optionally be exchanged between
all locations or just between stores in a specific zone (region
or district): New inventory, inventory item changes, inventory
item price changes, stock transfers between stores, general
ledger transactions, vendors, departments, bad check information,
new customers, customer changes, customer purchases, accounts
receivable information, time clock entries, end-of-day reports,
store data backups and store-to-store Email.
Transfers can be sent once a day at a specific time or throughout
the day at specified intervals (from once per minute to
once every 6 hours).
