Inventory and Warehouses
Overview
Inventory lists the quantity of each product SKU in a warehouse. A warehouse is the physical location where shippable items are stored.
Self-Managed Commerce breaks down the total inventory for a SKU in the following ways:
- On hand: The total amount currently in the warehouse.
- Available: The amount that can be used to fulfill new orders.
- Allocated: The amount allocated to fulfill current orders.
- Reserved: The amount that cannot be used to fulfill orders.
The formula for calculating the available inventory is:
Available = On hand - (Allocated + Reserved)
