as it arrives at the store. Easy to learn and easy to use, the MC1000 increases worker productivity and streamlines data entry. And because the MC1000 takes both disposable and rechargeable batteries, it's able to remain operational for as long as you need to use it. It even simplifies data upload processes - users simply place the MC1000 in its cradle or connect it via the USB client to transfer data to the host computer. By speeding data entry, the MC1000 lets you access important inventory information sooner. Accurate inventory information will help automate replenishment activities and make certain the products your customers want most are available for purchase. It will simplify payment processes by providing the information you need to promptly pay vendors exactly what you owe them. And it will reduce the amount of paperwork retail managers must handle, ensuring they spend less time in the back office and more time on the sales floor. To support post-sales processes, the MC1000 simplifies product returns. Rather than wasting time filling out forms, sales associates can simply scan in the returned items' bar codes. This information is then used by your inventory management system to automatically update records, allowing you to accurately track inventory at all times. Your point-of-sale system also is able to use the bar code information to calculate the customer's credit, speeding the return process and keeping customers satisfied.
