Go Deeper Into Every Module

How store data actually moves through the system, from creation to a reconciled compliance report. It connects directly to route planning, distributor management, retail execution, and the sales analytics platform.

Store Master Database Management

Centralized store master database lets admins create and manage the complete retail outlet network with store codes, addresses, GPS coordinates, channel classification, and parent outlet mapping. Bulk upload via Excel or create stores one-by-one through the portal, with an approval workflow before any store goes live in the field app.

How It Works

  • Admin creates store master with code, name, address, GPS lat/long
  • Upload stores in bulk via Excel or create one-by-one through the portal
  • Classify by channel (General Trade, Modern Trade, Kirana), category, territory
  • Map parent outlets for chain stores and franchises

Why It Matters

  • Single source of truth for the entire retail outlet network
  • Organized hierarchy for franchises and chain stores
  • GPS-enabled accuracy ready for geofencing from day one

Click a row: every field here is a real column from the actual store master screen.

GPS Geofencing & Visit Validation

Every store carries a configurable geofence radius, typically 50 to 200 meters depending on store type. Field employees can only mark a check-in when the device is physically inside that boundary, and the system layers in random photo verification during visits to confirm on-site presence.

Geofencing Features

  • Configurable radius per store (50-200 meters) based on store type
  • Check-in restricted to inside the geofence boundary
  • Real-time GPS capture with every store visit for audit trail
  • Visit photo with GPS timestamp, random verification checks

Visit Tracking

  • Check-in / check-out with exact time-spent calculation
  • Visit productivity report: stores visited per day per employee
  • Beat compliance: actual vs. planned store coverage, as a percentage

Beat Plan Management & Merchandising Tracking

Admins create daily or weekly beat plans with store assignments per employee, uploaded via Excel by store, user, distributor, or weekday. Field teams then capture merchandising execution, POSM deployment, signage status, and planogram compliance, with photo evidence attached to each store visit.

Beat Plan Management

  • Daily or weekly plans with store assignments and approval workflow
  • Upload via Excel: by store, user, distributor, or weekday
  • Beat compliance tracking: stores covered ÷ stores in plan

Merchandising & POSM

  • POSM types: standee, wobbler, shelf talker, branding board, poster, dangler
  • Signage status monitoring: own brand vs. competition
  • Planogram audit with compliance scoring against shelf standards

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Store Management Software?▾

A platform that manages store master database, GPS geofencing, beat plan assignment, visit validation, merchandising and POSM tracking, and store analytics, replacing Excel sheets and manual store tracking. Program managers work from the admin portal; field teams use the mobile app for check-ins and merchandising capture.

Why Is It Essential for Distributed Retail Networks?▾

With store networks spread across cities and regions, managing store data, visit compliance, and merchandising execution manually becomes impossible. 1Channel provides end-to-end retail outlet visibility from store creation to visit execution and analytics, cutting admin workload significantly.

How Does Store Creation and Bulk Upload Work?▾

Admin creates store records one-by-one or bulk uploads via Excel with store code, name, address, GPS coordinates, channel, and category. Parent outlet mapping handles chain stores and franchises, with an approval workflow before a store goes live in the field app.

How Does GPS Geofencing Prevent Fake Visits?▾

Each store carries a configurable geofence radius, typically 50-200 meters. Check-in only succeeds when the device is inside that boundary, and the system layers in real-time GPS capture plus random photo verification requests during visits.

How Does Beat Plan Compliance Tracking Work?▾

Admin creates daily or weekly beat plans with store assignments per employee, uploaded via Excel by store, user, distributor, or weekday. Beat compliance is tracked as stores covered divided by stores planned, with a percentage visible per employee and territory.

How Does Merchandising and POSM Tracking Work?▾

Field teams capture POSM deployment photos with material type and quantity during store visits: standee, wobbler, shelf talker, branding board, poster, and dangler. Signage status and planogram compliance are scored with before/after photos and a GPS timestamp.

How Long Is Implementation?▾

Standard implementation takes 2-4 weeks depending on store count and customization requirements. This includes store master setup, geofencing configuration, beat plan setup, a pilot phase, and dedicated training and support.
