WISL C/PRM is organized into operational sections corresponding to the two primary functions of retail management - buying and selling. In addressing these functions the system accommodates the special requirements of handling composite products.

WISL C/PRM provides for the creation of package products by identifying products as components of the package product. These packages can then be treated as individual products in the buying and sales cycles but where appropriate may be exploded into the components that they represent (such as when pricing or costing is required).
