Home Business Scope Inventory management
Inventory management
Inventory management is a systematic approach to managing stock items and physical assets. From a business point of view, it is a fundamental aspect of stock control that involves keeping the right sock at appropriate levels, in the right location, at the correct time. Though inventory and warehouse management systems share similarities, they aren’t the same. Inventory management typically deals with the stock at several warehouse locations. Warehouse management, on the other hand, is primarily concerned with the products stored in a particular facility.
How Inventory Management Works
How Inventory Management Works
Managing inventory is a complicated process, and this is especially true when you have many SKUs, multiple suppliers or sales channels.
Item Receiving

When a stock is delivered into one of the fulfillment centers of Dropship-air, the staff will put it in the reception area and inspect the products according to the entry list. Before each batch of goods is sent from the supplier, our customer service will assist the supplier in pasting the shipping mark and SKU bar code, which can help us count the goods conveniently. If the supplier is unable to provide this service, we can help paste the barcode, which will generate extra fees.


Make Inventory

By scanning the SKU bar codes one by one, the fulfillment center staff will make the inventory, the process may involve refilling the sold-out items, adding new SKUs and uploading new inventory information to the system. Dropship-air fulfillment system includes a very easy-to-use inventory management system, eCommerce sellers can check the inventory change in real time, and the inventory info will be synchronized to their online store.

Put on Shelves

Items will be placed onto shelves after the first two steps. Each SKU has a special box or drawer with a barcode attached to it. They are also unique in the shelf position. In the process of putting on shelves, the warehouse staff will scan multiple barcodes and input them into the warehouse management system, so that the location of each SKU can be quickly found during picking, effectively preventing errors.
