I'm betting it's inventory turnover (e.g. busier stores). It sounds like they were have problems with the inventory management component of SAP keeping up with the rate and volume of transaction that they were putting through it.

Probably too many low-ticket operations to move stock, which is critical for keeping your margins low in grocery stores.
