Definition

  1. OnHand: Represents the total stock quantity. It is typically used to record the actual inventory quantity of your warehouse products. (Reserved Inventory + Available Inventory)

  2. Available: Inventory that can be allocated. When orders are synced to 4Seller, the system checks if the matched product SKU has enough available inventory for allocation. If not, inventory alert will be triggered.

  3. Reserved: Inventory quantity that has been allocated to orders. When an order is synced to 4Seller, the system locks the inventory for that order. The locked inventory will not be allocated to other orders.

  4. Safety Stock: A user-defined safe inventory value. If the inventory quantity falls below this value, 4Seller will generate an inventory alert to remind you to replenish the stock.
