Definition

An Inventory Position is the core inventory record for a specific product and location. It aggregates all related Inventory Quantities across lifecycle states and business contexts.The position of inventory is the amount at a location. For example: 
  • for a product Running Shoe, size 10, color blue
  • and a location of Fluent HQ (Sydney)
  • the current active position is 42 (we love Running Shoes)
