Adhering to the principle of centralized management of endpoints (warehouse complexes, stores, workshops, etc.), the Run 2010 system allows you to flexibly create and configure a network nomenclature from one to truly unique for each point using centralized or individual principles of classification of goods. Here, if necessary, by setting up excessive parameters of the nomenclature position, the main business rules for the behavior of a particular product on the network are determined: loading into equipment, principles of calculating taxes, names for use in a particular application, compositions (if this is a product not of its own production), expiration dates, movement and orders, stock rates, replenishment, signs of excise taxes, alcoholic parameters and others.

• Pricing and marketing activity. End Price Management: Pricing and marketing activity management processes are centralized, flexible rules and settlement formulas are set in the Head Office, even if the end price is generated in the store management modules or even the cash register. The capabilities of the marketing activity system allow you to meet the requirements and real fantasies of most marketers: from the simplest fixed discounts to systems of discounts of threshold values ​ ​ of amounts/volumes of checks with printing to the buyer of an individual repeated discount (code barcode with date limit) on the check tape.

• Electronic document management for commodity movement. Documentary accounting. The Run 2010 complex supports various accounting schemes with any number of legal entities and user deep configuration of relationships of document flow types between legal entities. In fact, this means that at the level of central office settings, relationship rules for movement types and limiting and/or calculation rules within each document are set. Material accounting by zones (departments) within each subdivision, optimized electronic document flow, mechanisms for controlling and closing re-sorting, period closing functions, etc., are also in demand. A necessary and extremely useful function is the ability to maintain supply contracts and product specifications with further impact on other modules of the system. Accounting of deliveries, bonuses and netting, planning and posting of payments, formation of payment documents is carried out.

Depending on the settings of the system, a flexible scheme is provided from centralized office-based supply management to decentralized decision-making on its own by endpoints. When the Internet portal from the Run 2010 complex is included in the request/order scheme, the possibility of online electronic document flow with the supplier and preliminary coordination of supply volumes is created (in the basic version, this process is provided by the classic method - through mail exchange).

• Management control and analysis. A variety of analytical and reporting forms on various aspects of the activity will satisfy the specialists of each level of network management. Reports are generated both on the fly and according to data previously calculated by the system. The system uses OLAP technologies of multidimensional reports with the possibility of online parameterization. In addition, IT specialists have the ability to create their own reporting forms on the platform of the Run 2010 complex.
