Enterprise Inventory is the Foundation of Omnichannel Fulfillment

With online selling becoming commonplace, retailers have adjusted order fulfillment processes to include real-time capabilities like selling and fulfilling against inbound inventory or inventory at third-party drop shippers. Today, as retailers enable their stores to become fulfillment points, the complexity involved in achieving a consistent and accurate global view of inventory grows exponentially. These stores – along with warehouses or third-party drop shippers – must become part of a seamless enterprise view of the global inventory network to enable timely and accurate omnichannel order fulfillment.
