Before discussion, WSSI (MFP) needs no modeling.

Built-in views bring the merchandise vocabulary with them. You choose reporting periods, brands, categories, stores and channels rather than defining retail concepts from scratch.

WSSI (MFP)
Weekly sales, stock and intake alongside profitability. Reporting and analysis; plan authoring stays elsewhere. Range views include category, subcategory, brand and style, with stock and risk indicators.
Sell-through
Compare performance with revenue, gross profit, margin and rate of sale across merchandise dimensions.
Weeks of cover
Inspect availability and exposure, including low-stock, zero-stock and overstock conditions.

Decision time calls for visible evidence.

Inspect availability, supplier exposure and source coverage before deciding what needs attention. Keep the underlying evidence beside the signal.

Inventory & Supplier shows availability, supplier exposure and revenue-risk SKUs. The analytical view identifies issues for your review.

Tomorrow can recover what was agreed.

For Heads of Merchandising, trading directors, planners and analysts, the discussion leaves a record. Capture transcript lines, surfaced data, decisions and action items. Recaps retain linked sources and follow-up outcomes. Record, confirm or reject a decision, then assign and update the action items.

DECISION · PROPOSED

Review the next knitwear intake.

Owner: Maya Chen · Due: 10 Sep

Proposed decision retained with its source.

Questions, answered.

Saved views preserve analysis; recorded actions preserve follow-up.

Which retail measures are built in?

Revenue, gross profit, margin, discounts, average selling price, sell-through, weeks of cover and rate of sale. WSSI adds weekly sales, stock and intake.

Can I share and schedule reports?

Yes. Save reports for reuse, share them and schedule delivery. Analysts can preview results, add calculated fields and restore earlier versions.

Does atlas place orders or change stock?

No. This workspace reports and analyzes. It does not author merchandise plans, execute replenishment, place orders or mutate inventory.

Does zero stock always mean a stockout?

No. Missing source rows can look like zero stock. Coverage warnings distinguish weak data from a likely availability issue; check the underlying records. A displayed shortage is evidence to investigate, not a command to replenish.

Can I try it on my data?

Free 6-week POC on your own data, no contract. Live in 12 to 15 weeks, end to end.
