What we use to deliver ERP software for retail companies

Tools and platforms we typically use, and the systems it connects to. The final choice is made against your systems, budget and team.

What we deliver

ERP Software for Retail Companies in the UAE: what is included

ERP software for retail companies in the UAE links point of sale, store stock, the warehouse, e-commerce and accounts so every sale updates stock and the ledger at once.

01

Point of sale linked to stock

Tills in each store run on the ERP's POS or an integrated POS, with sales, returns and exchanges updating store stock and the ledger immediately, and cash-up reports reconciled per shift and per store.

02

Multi-store replenishment

Each store has its own stock and minimum levels, and replenishment transfers from the warehouse are suggested from sales, so best sellers do not run out in one mall while sitting unsold in another.

03

E-commerce on the same stock

Your online store, whether Odoo eCommerce or Shopify connected to the ERP, sells from the same stock pool, with click-and-collect and returns to store supported. Online orders can be fulfilled from the warehouse or a nearby store.

04

Promotions and loyalty

Seasonal sales, bundle offers, gift cards and loyalty points are configured centrally and applied at every till and online, which matters around Ramadan, Eid, Dubai Shopping Festival and year-end sales.

05

Card, wallet and BNPL payments

Card terminals, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and buy-now-pay-later options such as Tabby or Tamara are recorded against sales, so settlements from providers reconcile to store takings. Provider fees are posted automatically to the right expense account.

06

Store and category analytics

Sales per store, category, brand and hour, sell-through and margin are reported, helping buyers decide what to reorder and helping area managers compare store performance fairly. Dashboards can run in Power BI.

UAE specifics

What changes in the UAE

The local rules and realities we design for before go-live. Rules change, so we re-check the current position at scoping.

VAT-inclusive pricing

UAE retail prices are shown VAT-inclusive. The POS shows prices with 5% VAT included and prints tax invoices with your TRN, while reports split net sales and VAT.

Peak seasons

Ramadan, Eid, Dubai Shopping Festival and back-to-school drive sharp peaks. Promotions and replenishment rules are prepared well ahead so stores are fully stocked when the traffic arrives.

Tourist customers

Some UAE retailers serve many tourists. We confirm with you how tourist sales and any refund scheme you participate in are recorded before configuring the POS.

5Week 11 onward

Chain rollout

Remaining stores go live in waves, with staff training in each store and support through month end.

When ERP software for retail companies is the wrong answer

If you run a single shop, ERP software for retail is more than you need; a good cloud POS with accounting integration will do. And some large retailers already use specialist POS systems; in that case we integrate the POS with the ERP rather than replace it.

How we handle it: We implement Zoho, Odoo and Dynamics 365 and build AI and custom software, so our written recommendation can point you to a simpler option, or to doing nothing yet.

FAQ

ERP Software for Retail Companies in the UAE: questions we get asked

What is the right ERP software for retail companies in the UAE?
Odoo is a strong fit for small and mid-size chains because POS, inventory, e-commerce and accounting are in one system. Zoho Inventory with a connected POS suits smaller retailers. Business Central with retail add-ons suits larger chains on Microsoft. We compare them on your stores.
Can the ERP connect to our Shopify store?
Yes. Shopify can be integrated so products, prices, stock and orders sync with the ERP. Alternatively, Odoo eCommerce runs natively on the same database. We recommend based on your online sales volume and marketing needs.
Does the POS work if the internet drops?
Odoo POS can keep selling offline and syncs when the connection returns. For other POS systems we confirm offline behaviour during selection, because mall stores cannot stop trading when the network fails. Card terminals are tested in offline mode too.
Can we accept Tabby or Tamara?
Yes, where your provider supports it. BNPL payments are recorded as a payment method, and provider settlements are reconciled to sales, so finance can match payouts to store takings. Refunds through the provider are handled in the same way.
How long does a retail ERP rollout take?
Typically 10 to 12 weeks to the pilot store, then a few weeks per wave of stores, depending on the number of stores, SKUs and integrations. We avoid go-live during peak seasons such as Ramadan and year-end sales.
How much does ERP software for retail cost?
We give a fixed quote in AED for implementation after a free discovery call. Licence and POS hardware costs are paid to vendors and depend on stores and users; we show them clearly so your first-year cost is visible.
Why choose Shyphan?
We are a Zoho Premium Partner, an Official Odoo Partner and an independent Dynamics 365 consultancy that also builds AI and custom software, so we recommend by fit rather than by what we resell. Delivery runs from our Ras Al Khaimah office with remote delivery across all seven emirates.
