Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce
The ERP application Dynamics 365 Commerce, a part of the Microsoft Dynamics suite, is designed and customized for use by retailers. Microsoft added an eCommerce engine to Dynamics 365 Retail and re-branded it as Dynamics 365 Commerce. It delivers a comprehensive solution for various channels across physical stores, web, and call centers and enables seamless merchandising, inventory and order management, and warehousing and financials. In addition, Dynamics 365 Commerce unifies all retail functionalities and capabilities such as back-office and in-store. Furthermore, the ERP solution works well on multiple devices and allows customers to buy products through offline and online channels whenever they want irrespective of where they are.
