Overview

Inventory configuration allows Administrators to establish inventory records for products and warehouses within Znode. Inventory records define product availability, stock quantities, reorder thresholds, and backorder information used throughout the Ecommerce platform.

Inventory can be configured through:

• OMS > Inventory
• PIM > Products
• Inventory Import

Once inventory is configured, the information is synchronized across all inventory management areas within Znode.

Use Cases

Inventory configuration is commonly used to:

• Set up inventory for newly created products.
• Assign inventory to specific warehouses.
• Define available stock quantities.
• Configure reorder thresholds.
• Establish backorder information.
• Bulk load inventory records through import.
