Keep a recognizable stock record.
The inventory view lists store-scoped items with a name, SKU, category or karat, weight, status, cost basis and asking price. Those fields make a piece identifiable in the shop that holds it.
A saved estimate does not itself purchase the piece. Keeping neutral valuation separate from acquired stock prevents an uncompleted buying conversation from appearing as sellable inventory.
A transfer has more than one state.
Create the transfer.
Choose the source, destination and item. Availability must account for the pending handoff.
Dispatch the item.
The source no longer treats the piece as ready to sell. The destination has not yet received it.
Receive it at the destination.
Complete the handoff before the destination makes it available. Retain the route and history.
Handle retries and cancellations.
Repeating a successful request should resolve to the same transfer. Cancellation must respect whether the piece has already left.
The implemented transfer path is in controlled early-access review and has isolated concurrency acceptance coverage. The public stock preview lets you explore the states with sample data.
Ask the awkward stock questions.
| Scenario | What should be demonstrated |
|---|---|
| A customer offer is still open | The item cannot also be sold or sent to another location. |
| The piece is in transit | It is unavailable for sale at both ends of the route. |
| The same transfer request is retried | It resolves consistently without creating duplicate handoffs. |
| The offer expires | The prior item state is restored; unpurchased intake does not become available stock. |
| A person switches stores | Their actual organization and store access is checked for the new context. |
What comes after basic inventory?
Physical stocktakes, discrepancy resolution, bulk editing, labels, component-level jewelry records, consolidated reporting and commerce synchronization remain areas of product work. Multi-store access alone is not the same as a complete enterprise inventory system.
Use the migration guide to build a representative test file. Include held, sold, reserved and in-transit pieces rather than only clean available stock.
