Introduction

Safety stock enables you to guard your offline sales against online-induced stockouts. It can be defined on facility level, and decreases the available stock levels ("available for picking" and "available on stock"). This means, if the stock level in a given facility is equal or less than the configured safety stock, the available stock is.

Quick Start

Users can configure the desired safety stock quantity for each listing. Configurations can be made in the . For more information, please refer to .

As of now, safety stock is only designed for internal planning, e.g., via the stock overview. It is not considered in order routing which means that safety stock can still be sold online when using our order routing.
