Channel Inventory

Increase Closure Rates & Reduce Inventory Cost

Without real-time visibility to channel inventory levels, manufacturers lack the ability to assess the financial impact of proposed pricing changes and appropriately manage the movement of inventory. This can result in higher inventory costs and price fluctuations caused by excess or insufficient inventory, and undermine customer satisfaction if orders cannot be fulfilled in a timely manner.

Channel Inventory

Channel Inventory provides a real-time view of inventory levels reported by the channel, ensuring that business directed to a channel partner can be fulfilled appropriately. Channel Inventory also maintains the manufacturer's view of inventory by tracking distributor shipments and replenishment orders, enabling companies to validate and reconcile discrepancies between calculated and reported inventory views. Used with Stock Rotation and Price Protection, Channel Inventory enables manufacturers to increase sales closure rates, reduce the cost of inventory, reduce return requests, and track all price adjustments.
