- Migration from the old SAP POS solution to SAP Point-of-Sale by GK
- Equipping in excess of 1,000 stores in more than 10 countries
GK Software AG has gained its third customer in South Africa. A leading retailer with several sales lines will equip over 1,000 stores with SAP Point-of-Sale by GK in more than ten countries in southern Africa. This company is the first to complete the migration path from the old SAP POS solution (formerly known as Triversity) to the latest range of software. A local GK Software team together with a partner from the global partner network, which has already undergone intensive training, will complete the project, which will only entail relatively minor adjustments to the standard product.
