Auto-synchronize stock levels across platforms

Purpose

1. Automate, manage, and maintain real-time synchronization of inventory stock levels across all sales platforms to eliminate overselling, reduce manual updates, prevent stockouts, and optimize supply chain efficiency.

2. Ensure all channels—including eCommerce, in-store POS, and marketplaces—reflect accurate, automated stock updates as sales, returns, or restocks occur.

3. Automating this process streamlines inventory operations and frees up staff time for higher-value tasks.

Trigger Conditions

1. Automated trigger on new sale, refund, or stock intake in any platform or POS.

2. Automated change in warehouse stock levels.

3. Automated scheduled synchronization at defined intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes).
