📋 Inventory rooms

Make sure your sales floor is always stocked and run rates are 100% accurate with detailed inventory room configuration

Overview

POS inventory rooms with products will be pulled in Happy Buyers and need to be mapped for accurate run rates and sales floor replenishment alerts. 

Inventory room types

inventory-rooms-sellable

Sellable - counted in your run rate and inventory

All product counts and sales in sellable rooms will be calculated towards run rates and inventory.

Examples of sellable rooms are Sales Floor, Bud Bar, or End of Batch – any room with products that are in stock and ready to sell. 

inventory-rooms-backstock

Backstock - excluded from run rate but counted as inventory

Backstock rooms are important to map correctly for accurate run rates. They highlight any out-of-stocks on sellable inventory that need to be replenished ASAP from a back room, while also counting the products as inventory to prevent potential over-ordering. 

Examples of backstock rooms are Backstock, Supplies, Inbound, Receiving

inventory-rooms-excluded

Excluded - excluded from your run rate and inventory

Any rooms with products that are not sellable or counted as inventory should be marked as Excluded. These rooms are not included in any Happy Buyers data. 

Examples of excluded rooms are Quarantine, Employee samples, Returns
