International Classification:

G06Q 10/06

Abstract:

A control circuit for a retail sales facility presents via an active display a plurality of leaderboards that correspond to a variety of different associate-level performance statistics. These statistics can include, but are not limited to, the number of products that a given associate picks as part of moving products from a stock area to the retail sales product display area (over, for example, a given amount of time) and/or an aggregated monetary value of products that are so picked, a number of products that are so picked exclusively from a particular area of the product stock area, a number of manually-created requirements to so move products, and/or a number of products that are placed for storage in the product stock area itself. Such statistics can represent any time period of choice including, for example, a particular work shift such as a current work shift.

International Classification:

G06Q 10/06

Abstract:

A system and method for assigning employees that are schedule to work at a brick and mortar retail store location to coverage areas within the retail store and/or tasks associated with those coverage areas. The system and method takes into account the required coverage area times of each coverage area within the store location, the master schedule of employees available to work within a defined time period that is provided by a schedule management system, and management's preferences regarding coverage area priorities for or associated with certain employees, and then automatically assigns coverage to the scheduled employees based on all those variables. The system and method identifies individuals whose scheduled work shift overlaps with required coverage area times and who are preferred to work in the coverage area and assigns such individuals to work in the coverage area during the overlapping time period (or a portion thereof).
