Abstract | In today's dynamic retail landscape, customers expect a seamless, consistent, and transparent shopping experience across all channels, whether they are shopping online, on a mobile device, or in a physical store. Retailers who fail to meet these expectations risk losing customer loyalty and market share. A critical component of this seamless experience is providing accurate, real-time information about article availability and offering flexible fulfillment options. Traditional, siloed systems often struggle to provide a single source of truth for inventory and to execute complex, multi-criteria sourcing decisions efficiently. This white paper outlines how SAP's omnichannel solutions, particularly Omnichannel Article Availability and Sourcing (OAA) within the SAP Customer Activity Repository (CAR), empower retailers to overcome these challenges. By centralizing inventory data, leveraging real-time visibility, and employing a flexible, rules-based sourcing framework, businesses can unlock significant operational savings and enhance the customer experience. This paper explores the core capabilities, technical architecture, and business benefits of OAA, providing a roadmap for modernizing the retail supply chain and achieving a truly intelligent, customer-centric operation |
