Celerant Technology, a recommended point of sale and eCommerce provider of IndiePet, is expanding its point of sale functionality by offering a new software integration to IndiePet members. The new functionality within Celerant’s retail software grants access to product data with updates from manufacturers directly into the IndiePet Open Catalog. The data will be accessible from within Celerant’s retail software, saving retailers time and reducing errors by no longer needing to manually update data between the two platforms.

Saving Time by Removing Manual Data Uploads

The expanded ability of the IndiePet Open Catalog means that retailers can pull data directly from manufacturers participating in the program. Up-to-date product information, accurate MSRP and MAP pricing, and ease of use will help retailers sell merchandise more effectively. The added benefit is the time saved for retailers, as the integration automates tasks like exporting spreadsheets, hand-entering information, and uploading data, eliminating the need for manual processes.

Celerant Integration Streamlines Open Catalog Program Use

Retailers can easily add new products to their POS system database, along with detailed product data, directly from the IndiePet Open Catalog. Alternatively, retailers can also create new products in their inventory when placing purchase orders within their Celerant retail system. Search visibility is made easier with additional search filters and the option to add additional search fields for more accurate product drill-down.

Future Plans for Expanded Functionality with IndiePet Open Catalog

Celerant will soon expand the integration to include an online product feed that will enable retailers to sync digital assets, such as product images, consumer-facing descriptions, and more, to instantly populate on their website and mobile shopping app. The integration will help make this valuable and up-to-date product information more accessible directly from manufacturers.
