Like most marketing-related expenses, retail audits are one of those items that normally go into the "debit" side of the accounting ledger. However, they are instrumental in detecting issues at the point-of sale that might be preventing products from reaching their full sales potential.

For these professionals, retail audit software can become an invaluable tool not only for effectively scheduling and planning in-store audits, but also for reporting on those activities and linking audit and sales results.
