Safety Stock is inventory digitally "set aside." Since the Amplifier inventory sync sends Available inventory levels to Client's eCommerce store at various intervals, the Safety Stock level can help prevent accidentally overselling a product.
By default, Amplifier assigns a Safety Stock value of 10 units for any newly created SKU. We recommend that you set your Safety Stock for each item based on the velocity of the item, to facilitate RMA-related activity, emergencies, and general inventory shrinkage.
To change the Safety Stock level, click into the Item and adjust the value, then be sure to click Save.
Note that Safety Stock is just a digital tool and does not hard allocate units. It cannot be used to allocate inventory for particular orders.
