Hi Amit,
Below are few senarios.
Stock Allocation:
Below for exmaple stock received at Warehouse
Product Stocks Store a 34 Warehouse b 35 Warehouse c 36 Warehouse d 37 Warehouse a 38 Warehouse b 39 Warehouse c 40 Warehouse d 41 Warehouse a 42 Warehouse b 43 Warehouse c 44 Warehouse Below are the is the situtation at store, now system could use AI to idenfity which store is have low stocks and automatically creates a allocation/ distribution. like Product A QTY: 5 Store allocation : D
Store A Store B Store C Store D Product Stock Sales Stock Sales Stock Sales Stock Sales a 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 b 4 2 4 2 4 2 4 2 c 5 3 5 3 5 3 5 3 d 6 4 6 4 6 4 6 4 a 8 5 8 5 8 5 8 5 b 9 6 9 6 9 6 9 6 c 10 7 10 7 10 7 10 7 d 11 8 11 8 11 8 11 8 a 13 9 13 9 13 9 13 9 b 14 10 14 10 14 10 14 10 c 15 11 15 11 15 11 15 11 - Greg_Deckler
