Problem

Managing outlet stock, especially for handling broken returns, requires a simplified and efficient system. Retailers need to process returns swiftly and update inventory in real-time. Using Fluent Store as a “mini-WMS,” retailers can handle outlet orders and automatically update inventory once a broken return is received. Items deemed "good enough" for outlet sales can be seamlessly integrated into the inventory, allowing for better stock management and visibility across the store network.

  • Set up Fluent Store to function as a mini-Warehouse Management System (WMS) for managing outlet stock.
  • Automatically update inventory when broken returns are received and classified as suitable for outlet sales.
  • Utilize Fluent Store’s capabilities to handle the shipping of outlet items and streamline the return process.
  • Improve inventory visibility and control within outlet stores, optimizing stock availability and reducing manual handling.
