ARS Business Solutions, LLC Releases Point-of-Sale Software Utility to Integrate with QBP's Pricing and Labeling Service

Utility allows bicycling retailers to streamline the receiving process by integrating inventory management software with QBP's price pre-labeling service.

Sauk Rapids, MN (January 21, 2009) - ARS Business Solutions, LLC announces the release of an advanced utility that electronically transmits product data from the ARS Point-of-Sale (POS) and Inventory Management Software (IMS) to QBP, allowing QBP to pre-apply custom merchandise labels prior to order shipment. These pre-applied labels include retailer specified pricing, item descriptions, and part numbers in both human readable and bar coded formats, and is compiled from product data that is already managed within the ARS POS/IMS software.

The QBP Pricing and Labeling service, along with the ARS utility, will streamline the receiving process by bypassing the need to manually label merchandise upon receipt, will allow retailers to utilize bar code scanners to quickly receive in product, and will expedite merchandise getting to the sales floor. The ARS utility helps to virtually eliminate human errors that are a result of a manual labeling and receiving process.
