Distribution · Saudi Arabia
You hold stock in several places and serve customers from whichever one makes sense. The decision about which one is usually made by whoever picks up the phone, and its cost shows up in freight three weeks later.
What usually goes wrong
What matters here
Availability, transfer cost and lead time considered together when an order is placed, with the reasoning visible on the line.
Freight, duty and handling distributed across received lines, so item margin and balance-sheet valuation agree.
Stock committed to an order leaves the available pool immediately. Overselling stops being possible rather than being discouraged.
Profitability by channel, region and customer computed from the same ledger the accounts close on.
