Stock management





The stock management function is an MDM function and is relatively rarely used in PIM systems. passing on stock statuses is usually possible, but actually applying different stocks from different locations is really something that is an MDM function. There is therefore only a very small number of PIM solutions that can apply intelligence and business rules to inventories. Because PIM is becoming increasingly important for Ecommerce, more and more companies are realizing that an intelligent PIM offers many advantages for the business. Especially because more and more companies do business via “drop shipment”. It is then important to know exactly where the stock of a product is and which rules must be applied to choose an item from a supplier to be delivered for that specific order. This maximizes customer service and profit.
