whitepaper ROC Management Streamlines Accounting With Software Upgrades2008-03-26 Microsoft Tips
  ROC Management had been using a dated accounting package from Streamline for its general ledger, along with Speedline software for point-of-sale operations and Tenant Pro to manage sales and accounts receivable for the company. The organization's existing accounting system often required repeated information entry, leading to increased cost, time and potential errors. For example, one vendor provided information in a Microsoft Excel file format. That data needed to be rekeyed into the Streamline software. The company also was having difficulties with issuance of payroll to its 600 employees across four companies in two states.

whitepaper 34-Store Chain Grows 10 Percent Annually With the Help of a New Retail and Financial Solution2008-01-11 Microsoft
  Phyllis Heppenstall and daughter Kris founded Peekay, Inc. in 1980 as a direct-marketing company. They saw a market for adult products tastefully presented and sold. In six months, revenues had reached U.S.$500,000. Fiscal year 2007 ended with 31 stores and 20,000 daily transactions. As new marketing channels developed, a legacy Apropos point-of-sale and inventory management system proved difficult to modify. When Peekay's initial three-store network of Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System, installed by New West Technologies, demonstrated its worth in speed, ease, and flexibility, the comprehensive retail application was expanded chain-wide. Next, management chose Microsoft Dynamics GP to create an enterprisewide solution. Peekay and Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Tectura rethought and streamlined processes, clearing barriers so expansion can encompass several new stores a year.
