Retail orchestration layer

Your tools stay where they are. Your operations stop being fragmented.

Ranko makes stores, e-commerce, stock, logistics and head-office teams work as a single network. Without replacing your ERP, your POS or your e-commerce platform: by connecting what already exists and running the day-to-day flows.

Brands already run on Ranko every day.

A central platform for some, a precise scope for others: Ranko is deployed where the need is sharpest, then extends from there.

Ready-to-wear brand · Shopify e-commerce

An e-commerce site connected to the entire store network

Catalogue, stock, orders, Click & Collect, in-store fulfilment and logistics all work on the same layer. The website and the stores form a single commercial operation: store teams take part in fulfilling web orders, and the customer experience stays the same whichever channel they buy from.

Smoother exchanges with brands and suppliers

The rollout starts with supplier exchanges and the ordering process: a precise scope, extensible afterwards.

01 · The problem

The problem isn't the tool. It's the space between the tools.

Each system does its own job properly. It's the hand-offs — web to store, store to warehouse, field to head office — that cost time, margin and the promise made to the customer.

01

Two stock figures for the same product

The website shows availability the store cannot honour, and the store holds stock the website never sells.

web_stock ≠ store_stock
02

Store fulfilment is run over the phone

Who is picking, who declined, who is late: the information travels through messages and calls, outside the tools.

status = to be confirmed
03

The information lives in five places

ERP, e-commerce, spreadsheets, emails, third-party logistics. Every team works from its own version of the truth.

erp | shopify | xlsx | mail | 3pl
04

Head office finds out about exceptions too late

Delays, declined fulfilment requests and stock-outs surface after the fact, once the customer has already waited or cancelled.

alert = D+3
05

Manual steps between every tool

Exports, re-keying, copy-paste: team hours spent every week gluing systems back together.

export → re-key → import
02 · Orchestration

Ranko doesn't replace your systems. It makes them work together.

A single layer that reads existing flows, reconciles discrepancies and triggers the right action in the right place: in store, at the warehouse, at head office.

Read

Stock, sales, orders, products and reference data are pulled from wherever they already live.

Reconcile

Discrepancies between channels are matched, logged and corrected instead of being discovered.

Trigger

Picking requests, syncs, alerts and follow-ups go out automatically to the right team.

03 · Benefits

Three changes teams notice first.

01

Make the customer promise reliable

What is shown as available genuinely is. What is ordered gets allocated, picked and tracked through to collection or delivery.

Real stock · Allocation · Traceability
02

Let stock flow both ways

The store is no longer on the receiving end of the website: it becomes a stock, fulfilment and collection point. And it sells in turn, drawing on the warehouse and on the other stores in the network.

Network stock · Fulfilment · Collection
03

Manage exceptions instead of absorbing them

Normal flows run on their own. Head-office teams focus on the outliers: refusals, delays, stock-outs, sync errors.

Automations · Alerts · Retries

Does any of that describe your operations?

04 · Use cases

What Ranko runs day to day.

Omnichannel order

A web order picked by the right store, with no manual arbitration.

Ranko picks the fulfilment point based on real stock, quotas, closures and configurable scoring. The store accepts, picks and labels. If it declines or misses the deadline, the outstanding items are reallocated automatically.

Allocation by stock scoring
Fulfilment across stores and warehouse
Shipping label, photo proof, carrier tracking
Omnichannel

An item is sellable even when it isn't in the store.

The warehouse and the other stores become stock sources for the sale. A store closes a sale on a product that isn't on its floor, and the website works from the network's real stock rather than a projection.

Inter-store requests raised from the till
Warehouse and stores as stock sources
Detail by size, colour and barcode
Product data

One product record for every channel.

Variants, sizes, materials, care instructions, AGEC traceability, SEO: product data is held in one place, then pushed out to e-commerce, the POS and business files.

Reference data shared across teams
CSV, Excel, barcode and EDI exports
Collection and merchandising books
Shopify

Day-to-day Shopify is run from Ranko.

The Ranko product record creates and updates the Shopify product, with data checks before anything is sent. Stock, prices, collections and discounts follow automatically. And what happens on the site — stock-outs, pre-orders, abandoned carts, gift cards — comes back into Ranko.

Products, images and collections maintained in Ranko
Stock, prices and discounts propagated to the site
Stock-outs, pre-orders and abandoned carts put to work
Purchasing

From purchase order to goods-in, in one thread.

Orders, quantities, receipts, documents and production tracking stay attached to the product data instead of living in separate spreadsheets.

Production tracking and expected receipt dates
Documents and confirmations generated
Alerts on orders awaiting approval
Execution

A status that reads end to end.

Payment, picking, transit, collection, return, cancellation: every step is time-stamped and traceable, in store as at head office.

Event history per order
Search by SKU, customer or store
Global export for analysis
Head office

The store view and the network view, without reading twice.

Today's sales, year-on-year comparison, footfall, product and category performance: the same indicators for one store or for the whole network.

Sales, footfall and conversion combined
Product performance, store vs network
Fulfilment analytics
Continuity

Knowing whether a store can take payment, right now.

Network, 4G, telephony and the till itself are combined into a per-store diagnosis. When an incident happens, it becomes a tracked request routed to the right provider, instead of a call into the void.

Health diagnosis per store
History and SLA tracking
Incident turned into a tracked request
Exceptions

The routine runs itself, the exceptions surface.

Scheduled syncs, follow-ups, deadline reminders and push notifications: teams are called on when a decision is needed, not to watch screens.

Exception and delay dashboards
In-app and field push notifications
Jobs that can be re-run, and are logged
05 · Scope

A broad foundation. You switch on only what you need.

Ranko covers the full chain, from product to payment. Each area unfolds below, and a rollout starts with just one of them before extending.

business modules
16
families of tools already connected
scheduled automations
several levels of access rights
01 Catalogue & product data One record feeds the POS, the website, the books and the exports. +

Product reference data built for fashion: variants, colours, sizes and size grids are native, as are seasons and collections.

Materials, composition, care, dimensions, customs codes
AGEC traceability carried by the record (French environmental labelling): country per manufacturing step, recycled materials, substances
Rights per section of the record: price, materials or AGEC can be handed to one team without opening up the rest
AI-assisted copywriting, bulk translation
Collection and merchandising books generated as PDF
CSV, Excel, barcode, EDI and FTP/SFTP exports
02 Stock & availability Stock that isn't just consulted — it's consumed by decisions. +

Store view and network view, down to size, colour and barcode, kept in sync with the POS, the e-commerce site and the warehouse.

Availability calculated on stock actually committed, not theoretical stock
Scan-based stocktaking: counting, discrepancies, adjustment
Inter-store availability visible from the till
Goods requests and transfers between stores
Automatic and on-demand syncs
03 Omnichannel & Click & Collect The whole catalogue sellable from any point in the network. +

Stock stops belonging to the place where it sits idle. A web order goes to the right store or to the warehouse, chosen by a scoring engine; conversely, a store closes a sale on an item that isn't on its floor by having it sent from the warehouse or another store.

Warehouse and network stores serve equally as stock sources
Scored allocation: product rotation, stock depth, quotas and closures, with weights set by the business
Stock that isn't turning where it sits becomes a shipping priority
Inter-store requests and transfers triggered from the till
Automatic reallocation after a refusal or a missed acceptance deadline
Allocation simulator: the decision can be previewed without writing anything to the database
Store notification, up to an automated phone call
Carrier label, photo proof of picking, counter collection and tracking
TNT is integrated; your carrier connects as soon as it exposes an API or file feeds
04 Payment & till A full POS, optional: you are not locked in anywhere. +

Ranko already talks to two POS-ERP systems on the market, and ships its own point of sale, built to the NF525 / ISCA requirements.

Full-screen POS, scan-driven, usable offline
Chained signature, gapless numbering, immutable six-year archiving
In-store returns of a web order, credit notes, exchanges
Tax-free, split payment and loyalty built into checkout
X / Z reports, FEC export (French statutory accounting file), accounting exports
Commission scales and closing per sales assistant
05 Promotions & campaigns A discount is configured once and goes out to the POS and the website. +

Ranko becomes the source of truth for promotions: the same mechanics in store and online, testable before publication.

Ten standardised mechanics: tiers, bundles, extra discount, coupons, discounts from N items…
Successive sale markdowns handled natively
Sync test before actual publication, on the POS side as on the e-commerce side
Targeting by store, group, date and channel
Manual discount and maximum discount under permission
Statistics per campaign, web and store
06 Purchasing, suppliers & production From purchase order to goods-in, in one thread. +

Purchasing stays connected to product data, to production tracking, and to the supplier itself, who fills in their own information through a secure form.

Purchase orders: approval, attachments, PDF confirmations
Production tracking: shipping dates, receipts, lead-time variances
Supplier onboarding through a secure form, in French, English and Italian
Purchasing reference data: incoterms, carriers, currencies and rates
Goods receipts and goods requests
07 Store network & field “Can this store take payment, right here, right now?” +

A supervision module retail ERPs don't offer: network, 4G, SIM, telephony and the till combined into a per-store diagnosis.

Store health history, SLAs, incident turned into a tracked request
Store requests qualified and routed: maintenance, IT, till, consumables
Network communication: media, playlists, in-store screens and totems
Dedicated mobile view, password-free tablet sign-in
Store records, opening hours and regions: the reference data every flow reuses
08 Teams & field HR Network HR — the part classic HRIS platforms handle badly. +

Actual attendance, cover between stores, scheduling under constraints: Ranko covers day-to-day HR on the ground.

Weekly rota with minimum staffing per role
Two-step leave approval, peak periods blocking critical leave
Cover and replacements between stores, tracked and dated
Sales-assistant commissions with payroll export
Applications tracked from the dashboard
09 Customers, marketing & reporting A CRM fed by real operations, with no double entry. +

Sale, collection, stock-out, basket, birthday: every event feeds customer knowledge, and head office reports on the same data.

360° customer view through to the till, loyalty programme built in
Back-in-stock, pre-orders and abandoned baskets followed up automatically
Consent and opt-out managed end to end, through to the point of sale
Dashboards per role: executive, retail, finance, e-commerce, HR
Sales cross-referenced with store footfall (people counters)
Scheduled syncs and follow-ups, logged and re-runnable

Every capability listed here is in production. The detail — screens, configuration, the particulars of your organisation — is shown in a demonstration, on your real flows.

06 · Integrations

Ranko adapts to your ecosystem. Not the other way round.

The connections below are proof of capability, not prerequisites: two different POS-ERP systems, an e-commerce platform, a third-party logistics provider, a carrier, an accounting tool, two CRMs. If your tool exposes an API, webhooks or file feeds, it can join the list.

None of these tools is imposed, and none is a gateway you have to go through: changing your POS, your CRM or your carrier does not put Ranko back in question. The exact scope of a new connection — what it covers, what it requires — depends on what the tool exposes, and is assessed case by case. It is one of the first topics of a scoping conversation.

Let's look at what can be orchestrated at your end.

A demonstration starts from your real flows: your channels, your stores, the tools you already run. An hour is enough to identify what can be orchestrated.

Your tools stay in place: nothing to replace to get started. And if you ever decide to change POS, Ranko ships its own.
A precise starting scope, extended afterwards. Not a company-wide programme.
A standard foundation that covers the day-to-day, and bespoke development when your organisation requires it.
A scoping conversation, with no preparation needed on your side.
