The challenge

Each store kept its own records, so head office had no reliable view of POS and IT equipment, repairs or transfers between branches.

  • No central view of equipment across stores
  • POS and IT repairs tracked store by store
  • Transfers between branches went unrecorded
  • Branch stock-takes were slow and inconsistent

How Asetavo helps

  • Tracks POS systems across stores
  • Assigns equipment to stores and employees
  • Tracks computers and networking equipment
  • Records maintenance and repairs
  • Tracks transfers between branches
  • Simplifies branch-level stock-taking

In practice

All store equipment lives in one register organized by branch. Store managers scan transfers and log repairs, and branch stock-takes run from a phone.

Business value

Nova gets centralized control across all retail locations, with every POS terminal and device accounted for.

Questions teams like this ask

Can store managers see only their store?

Yes. Access can be limited to one store or region.

Does it replace our POS system?

No. Asetavo tracks the POS hardware, not sales.

How do transfers work?

The sending store scans the item out and the receiving store scans it in.
