For allocators
Who gets what, decided in one place.
Sales, stock, in-transit units and store grades sit beside every allocation in core plus. What you know about the stores does the deciding.

Re-keying was never the skill.
You know which branch sells through and which sits on it. The hours go to carrying figures between systems.
Pull.
Sales from one system, stock from another, the purchase order from a third, exported into one sheet.
Build.
The split by grade, size and store, in formulas you wrote yourself.
Key back.
The answer typed into the system that ships it, line by line, then checked.
Before merchmix, a mid-market retailer runs on 10+ systems and 50+ spreadsheets.
Grade B isn’t a small A.
Each store’s split reads its own grade, size curve and capacity, so a B store gets the depth and sizes it sells, not a shrunken copy of the A list.
Your words on the screen: grades, cover, min-max.

First allocation.
Today: Built in a sheet, then keyed in.
Instead: Store rows arrive with grade, sales band, stock, in-transit and weeks of cover. Adjust sizes and units, then send for approval.
Replenishment review.
Today: Min and max kept in another tab.
Instead: A model per style sets the refill, with per-store overrides beside the global rule.
Transfer.
Today: Finding who sits on it means scrolling.
Instead: Below-minimum and over-maximum lines surface as exceptions. The move goes store to store, not through the distribution centre.
Monday rebalance.
Today: The weekend meets Friday's sheet.
Instead: Sales and stock recalculate in seconds, so the imbalance is already a list.
Legwork is yukti’s half.
yukti drafts the rebalance as store-to-store transfers, and the replenishment run, from live sales and stock, inside the grades, minimums and maximums you set. Each comes with the products, the stock and the reason. Your half: approve it, or let it run.
yukti acts: rebalance, allocation & replenishment, purchase orders, new styles, and more. All live today.
Your split lands on three screens.
Nobody waits for the file. The people either side of you work from the allocation you approved.
Planner.
Sets the MFP (WSSI) and size curves in core, and sees your split against them.
Buyer.
Sees where each unit of their purchase order went, store by store.
Operations.
Ships and receives the transfers you approved, from the same allocation.
What’s left is the interesting part.
If yukti allocates, what is the allocator for? The rules, first: the grades, the minimums, how far a store may stray from the national curve. Then the exceptions: the new opening, the refit, the branch that trades like no other. Hours spent on those stores make you worth more, not less.
Questions, answered.
Can I override what it recommends?
Yes. Change line-level quantities, size percentages, carry decisions and statuses before approval, and set overrides for any store.
Can I test a split before it goes live?
Yes. A what-if scenario previews store quantities without touching live allocations. Commit when it looks right.
Where do the store grades come from?
A revenue-by-size grid places each store in a cell with a buy grade. Outliers show beside their suggested position.
Can the result go to the warehouse or the supplier?
Yes. Approved allocations commit store and warehouse transfers, and export as detailed or supplier-facing files.
