Abstract
A method and a system for preparing a new store for opening and operation are described herein. The system includes a plurality of network elements and a host computer operatively coupled to the plurality of network elements. The host computer includes a processor and a storage device operatively coupled to the processor. The storage device including information associated with a plurality of virtual stores based on information associated with at least one existing store. One of the plurality of virtual stores corresponds to the new store, and the information associated with the one of the plurality of virtual stores includes information associated with opening and operation of the new store.
