3PL inventory consistency

Audit inventory consistency before promising real-time sync.

This is a cautious operations audit for stores that use a 3PL, sell bundles, or see stock numbers drift across channels. The first deliverable is not a risky real-time writeback system. It is a clear operating model for truth, timing, exceptions, and bundle inventory logic.

Audit areaWhat we define
Authority sourceDefine which system is allowed to be the source of truth for each inventory number.
Sync frequencyMap how often inventory moves from store, ERP, WMS, marketplace, and 3PL systems.
Exception freeze rulesDefine when to freeze selling, bundle creation, or channel pushes after inventory conflicts.
Bundle BOM managementDocument how kits, bundles, and component inventory should be reserved and deducted.
Mismatch reportList the mismatch patterns that should be monitored before any real-time writeback promise.

Best first promise

We do not start by promising instant two-way inventory sync. We start with an audit that gives the operator a reliable map: which system is authoritative, how often data moves, which mismatches freeze selling, and how bundle BOMs should reserve components.
