FAQ
Concept
Listings address a fundamental challenge in modern e-commerce: the need to sell the same product across multiple sales channels with different pricing strategies and identifiers. In today's competitive marketplace, businesses need the flexibility to present their products differently across various platforms while maintaining centralized inventory control.
Traditional inventory systems often force businesses to create duplicate products for different sales channels, leading to complicated inventory management and potential overselling. Listings solve this by separating the sales channel presentation (price, SKU, barcode) from the core inventory tracking, allowing businesses to maintain different price points and identifiers across platforms while ensuring stock levels remain accurate and synchronized.
While listings excel in e-commerce integration, they're equally valuable for local businesses. Small shops, market stalls, and brick-and-mortar stores can use listings to manage different pricing scenarios (retail, wholesale, special events) and track sales analytics. When manually actioning stock through the Stockmate interface or mobile app, you'll be able to select which listing the sale belongs to, ensuring accurate sales tracking and inventory management regardless of your business model.
