    Ideally it can work with any kind of retailer but workarounds and customisations required to handle deliveries.

    As the AP of the company it is good at generating suggested payments and the upload feature to the bank is very helpful

    Cons
    Aptos
    • Data Director leaves room for improvement as it can be very tricky while dealing with a large number of master data records. Sometimes it doesn't write delete actions to POS.
    • Furniture retail is another area where improvement is required to handle deliveries.
    • Newer versions don't support data replicator which was the most reliable data tool with earlier LS Retail versions. There should be a replacement for this tool.
