Greater understanding with flexible collections
Creating groups is a smart way of analysing data.
It provides a tidy method for viewing performance of individuals, or comparison between groups. Having the flexibility to create custom collections based on any criteria is one of the most useful and powerful features in Infinity CPM.
Products can be grouped based on merchandise or promotional activity, stores based on margin performance or customers on spending habits.
Collections for any occasion.
Collections can be created by selecting items you wish to group together, or calculated based on criteria you choose, such as sales volume or price. Both methods can be used to create collections of any items, such as stores, employees, products, or customers.
To select Items for a collection, use the check mark to pick out items of interest on the fly. Or take a more structured approach and use the collection window to search for and add items based on a list or certain attributes.
Calculated Results.
Calculated collections update automatically based on the criteria you choose. For example, set a collection to calculate the staff members who have a discount rate greater than 20%, each day you come back to view this collection, it is recalculated with the latest data.
This is incredibly useful to analyse information that changes on a regular basis, such as stock that is slowing moving or dead, and products sold on discount or reduced margins.
Creating your own collections provides a flexible way to manipulate your data from any angle. This makes it easier to go beyond top-level reporting, and start to see in greater detail what is happening in your business. Think about the possibilities for targeted marketing knowing who your high-value customers are… or which customers purchased product X… or who the customers are that prefer to shop in store Y.

Infinity releases first POS Afterpay integration
We are thrilled to announce Infinity is first to integrate with Afterpay at point of sale, making it available in-store as well as online.
Already available with Infinity eCommerce, the Infinity POS integration extends Afterpay, an attractive alternative to layby to all channels.
With Afterpay, customers are able to buy and take what they want instantly, and pay for it over time. You receive the full price of the sale up front.
The in-store POS functionality optimises the experience for both your sales people and customers, ensuring efficiency and speed of payment.
Customers shop as normal and then commit to four interest free payments, one every two weeks. Afterpay immediately settles with you, assuming any credit or fraud risk. This eliminates issues associated with layby such as high abandonment rates and the need to honour a reduced sale or discounted price after the lay-by of a fully-priced item.
Afterpay has been demonstrated to:
generate more sales to existing and new customers who like to shop now and pay later
increase basket size and repeat purchase rates
reduce risk of end-customer non-payment for every single transaction, providing peace of mind for the retailer
*Afterpay is only available in Australia
