Wholesale Distribution Industry and SAP Retail Solution

Hello,

I am sure this quesiton must have bothered some of us folks here.

Can we position SAP Retail industry solution for a Whoelsale distributor that doesn't do retailing (no store based sales)? The distributor is not into manufacturing as well and doesn't require Material Ledger functionalities (which is something Retail solution doesn't support)

The distributor does need ERP, SCM (Demand Planning, Sales & Operations Planning, supply netrwork planning, Extended warehouse management) functionalities.

I mean what are the major pitfalls one could encounter if retail is switched on?

Regards,

Gaurav
