Clarification about inventory management and order cycles

Sorry @MyriamBoure, unfortunately the setting you are referring to restricts the products that are available in an order cycle to only those items which are on a coordinator’s inventory list. It’s a way for a coordinator to say ‘I don’t want to see my winter stock items in the OC interface during summer’, to help them save time setting up OCs. It doesn’t mean that all shops inherit the price/stock values that are set in that inventory.

Lyn is working on an Inventory upload tool, which would make your users’s task of updating 10 Inventories faster.

Perhaps a short term solution would be the ability to set inventory for >1 enterprise at the same time?

Or the hub could avoid Inventory and use products instead (only if no other users are stocking the products).

Eventually Rob and Kirsten are keen to overhaul the inventory tool and the order cycle setup. This is a big change that will solve your use case and others. Under the new system, enterprises will be able to make multiple inventory lists, which they can share and inherit with others. These lists will also be the basis of order cycles, instead of creating lists in 2 places as we currently do (inventory and OC setup). See here Order Cycles 2.0 / Schedules and this is also related - Inventory Management - Separate Product Info
