How to enable the inventory synchronization
- Enable the synchronization using the corresponding “Inventory sync” checkbox.
- Add one or multiple locations to a table that appeared and bind 3PLs to them.
Using the Safety Stock Feature
The Safety Stock feature prevents inventory from syncing when it falls below a specified Safety Stock level, helping to avoid overselling, especially for high-demand products during peak season. When a product's inventory drops below the safety stock level, the system automatically sets the inventory to zero.
The Safety Stock field is now visible under the Products Page and can be adjusted individually or by using the Bulk Update feature.
When quantities are reaching the safety stock level, the Inventory Page will show low stock quantities highlighted in yellow.
