PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The objective of high-value inventory distribution is to increase the in-stock rates of highvalue merchandise and reduce inventory cycle times. High value distribution center has been identified as an opportunity to improve the cycle time and in-stock rate of high value merchandise through central storage and distribution of inventory. From a systems perspective, the primary objective of this project is to establish a separate High-Value Distribution Center (HVDC) (owned and operated by trading company) and supply all DFS stores from this central DC. This will in turn help in achieving the business requirement of reducing cycle times and improving in stock rates for High value merchandise. To meet the above-mentioned requirements, changes are required in java as well as the stored procedure where the business logic is embedded. The project uses DB/400 as the database. The changes are required in existing DFS Merchandizing System application which include modifications in modules such as product, price change, purchase order and supply chain modules CLIENT DESCRIPTION: DFS Group Limited, based in San Francisco, California, is the world's leading retailer for international travelers. DFS was founded in Hong Kong in 1961 as a liquor, tobacco, cosmetics

and fragrances duty-free concession Shoppe. In 1962, DFS won its first duty-free airport concession in Honolulu. The company concentrated on the Asia/Pacific region as the fastest growing area for international travel. Its customers were primarily Japanese. In 1968, DFS opened its first downtown store in Honolulu for Japanese traveling on holiday. DFS developed a strong relationship with travel agents both in Japan and at various overseas destinations. Based on these relationships, travel agents brought in large numbers of Japanese tour groups to shop at DFS stores. Once onsite, DFS was able to offer these travelers branded merchandise that they could buy both for themselves and as gifts to take back home, at significant savings to their domestic prices. DFS Operates in LA, Honolulu, Hong Kong, Singapore / Korea, Guam, Taiwan, Australia / New Zealand, Japan and China

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The objective of this project was to mingle sales of duty free and duty paid items within a single transaction. The purpose of this project is to take advantage of the legal interpretation that permits DFS North America to sell Duty Paid items sales tax exempt for export. In order to qualify for the sales tax exemption, DFS North America must ensure that the merchandise is only sold to qualifying international travelers, and that the merchandise is truly exported prior to use/consumption. DFS North America must also ensure that the merchandise is only delivered to the customer at his point of departure from the United States. This enhancement also allows select Duty Paid locations to be excluded from the sales tax exempt status and thus continue selling to all customers regardless of whether they are departing the US
