Inventory
On hand is your physical shelf count, which is available plus committed. Available is free stock new orders draw from. Committed is stock already allocated to incomplete orders. Incoming is stock on open purchase orders. An item needs purchasing when incomplete orders aren’t covered by available or incoming stock. Itemstores works that out across all of your open orders, so you create one purchase order instead of checking orders one at a time. Inventory is tracked per SKU, so several products sharing a SKU draw from the same stock.
