Your whole back office, in the cloud.

EM Cloud™ replaces traditional back-office price management and reporting with one portal — pricing, stock, campaigns, invoicing, loyalty and reporting for one store or many, developed and supported in-house in Adelaide.

Cloud back office

What is EM Cloud™?

EM Cloud™ is GaP Solutions’ cloud-based retail management system for independent retailers. It manages pricing, inventory, campaigns, purchase orders, stocktakes, label printing, customer accounts and reporting from a single portal — for one store or a multi-store group — accessible from any device with a browser.

Why EM Cloud™

A complete cloud platform designed to improve every part of the retail cycle.

Mobility

Manage every aspect of trade from off-site or head office, on any device with a browser.

No server required

Secure cloud infrastructure means no expensive on-site server hardware or remote access costs.

Host files from your buying group

Host files from Metcash, ALM, Foodland, Spar, FoodWorks, UCB, Tasmanian Independent Retailers, New Sunrise, PharmX and BP — retrieved and pushed to every store. Metcash accredited.

Intelligent auto ordering

Analyses your sales data to predict the right amount of stock — and shows exactly why it suggests those quantities.

Investment Buy

Times purchases around supplier deal cycles using cost, stock, sales history and future promotions — and reports the savings.

Live stocktakes

Count while the store keeps trading — no after-hours shutdowns, counts scanned live through the EM Omnia PDE.

Waste management

Dump Stock removal and reporting, plus expiry alerts that flag stock nearing its use-by date before it becomes waste.

Integration

Connect payments, accounting, loyalty, e-commerce and more — over 100 retail partners.

Feature spotlight

Order smarter. Waste less.

The tools that protect your margin — built into the same portal that runs your pricing and stock.

Intelligent Auto Order

EM Cloud™ analyses your sales data to predict the right amount of stock, recommends quantities and shows you exactly why it suggests those amounts. Most stores discover they’ve been overstocking — tying up capital and increasing waste.

Investment Buy

Extends Auto Order for strategic purchasing: it reviews cost, stock on hand, auto-order cycles, sales history and future deals, pinpoints the best purchase timing against your suppliers’ cycles, then places orders automatically. View total savings, days since the last deal or best deal — across one store or many, with each site’s storage capacity factored in.

Live stocktakes

Run stocktakes while the store remains fully operational — no more after-hours shutdowns or manual data entry marathons. Configure sections for counting in EM Cloud™ and watch counts arrive live as they’re scanned on the EM Omnia PDE.

Waste management

Remove unsellable items in a single click with Dump Stock, monitor every removal in the Dump Stock Report to track losses and spot recurring issues, and get automated alerts for items nearing expiry — so markdowns happen before waste does.

Operator Control

Reporting

Extensive reporting across financials, sales, stock, EFT, cash balancing, loyalty, fuel, KPIs, promotions, rebates and operators — continually expanded based on client needs.

Electronic Shelf Labels

EM Cloud™ connects directly with EM ESL electronic shelf labels, updating shelf pricing automatically whenever prices change.

Loyalty

Ezi Rewards loyalty built in — points, vouchers and member pricing managed from the same portal.

Invoicing

EM Invoicing automates supplier invoice capture and matching, straight into the portal.

Built by retailers, in-house.

EM Cloud™ was built by people who owned and managed supermarkets. They walked the floor, and they understand the needs of the independent retailer.

In-house development

Because our developers are in-house, the software is created, built and adjusted around what our customers need — not the other way around.

In-house support

An Australian help desk and around-the-clock technical support, from our Adelaide-based team.

In-house training

In-person training from people who know both the software and the shop floor.
