Implementierung

Successful implementation of space management in your company means installing XPace shelf planning software on your own PCs and providing the data for products and fixtures. Data from external systems and sources is reused via interfaces. The implementation may be carried out on local and mobile computers as well as been controlled by a central server.

Products and Fixtures

Product information is provided by the user. XPace supports various data interfaces and import paths to transfer the product data into the (local or server-side) database.

Standard fixtures for typical retail racks come with the XPace installation. The standard library can be extended by individual fixels, displays and custom holders. Primarily the individual components are defined by their three-dimensional geometry, while containing additional information on placement behavior and on anchor points and grids as well.

Linked bills of materials enable comprehensive logistics of fixtures and accessories for each planogram.
