How Deals Interacts with Products and Inventory
When you are utilizing products and inventory with deals, there are two things that you want to consider (Reserved Stage and Fulfilled Stage). These stages are crucial because they help manage your stock levels efficiently and ensure you can meet customer demands without running into issues like no stocks or over-promising an order. Setting up these stages correctly will allow for better inventory control, smoother sales processes, and improved customer satisfaction.
Reserved Stage
The Reserved Stage is used to hold inventory for a deal as soon as it reaches a specific point in your sales process, such as "Order Submitted." When a deal gets to this stage, Fluid automatically reserves the required quantity of the product, reducing the available stock. This means the product is set aside for this deal and can't be sold to another customer, helping you avoid running out of stock and ensuring you can fulfill customer orders.
Fulfilled Stage
The Fulfilled Stage is usually set to "Shipped" or "Fulfilled," is when the product is shipped to the customer. At this stage, Fluid deducts the quantity on hand and available from your inventory, completing the transaction and updating your stock levels. This helps keep your inventory records accurate and ensures that your orders are delivered on time.
Using these deal stages helps you keep track of your inventory and manage your sales more effectively. If you have any questions or need help, contact us at support@outfieldapp.com.
