Inventory management

Inventory management plans, tracks and replenishes stock across the organisation. It connects availability with demand, locations and purchasing; warehouse-level inventory control is one part of that wider responsibility.[1]

A merchant with several storage sites must consider both overall availability and local shortages. Purchasing more is not always necessary if another site has surplus stock. A transfer may be preferable, after accounting for transport time and existing customer commitments.
