Use Serover Scalable Inventory to enhance Customer Experience with accurate Inventory
Serover Scalable Inventory makes it easy for Online Sellers to centralize inventory available to promise across all selling channels including external marketplaces e.g. Google, Walmart or Amazon. Never worry about keeping track of online inventory available to sell.
Enterprises can integrate various systems to stream onhand supply, inbound supply and supply changes to Serover platform with REST API. Selling channels and Order Management Systems (OMS) can integrate with Serover to stream all demands information and demand changes. Serover acts as a central inventory hub to process all supply and demand streams and calculate real-time inventory availability. Selling channels can obtain most up-to-date real time inventory available-to-promise (ATP) via ultra-fast REST apis (with millisecond latency) to show on product detail or checkout page, thus preventing underselling or overselling.
Inventory ATP can be obtained either at a group level as aggregated value (inventory available for ecommerce ship to home orders) or at a store level (inventory available in store for BOPIS or curb side pickup)
Sellers can show real time inventory ATP for current on-hand as well as future inbound inventory to take planned backorder orders. OMS can also use future inbound inventory ATP to schedule backorders on a future date.
