Fulfillment Locations in Omnichannel Inventory
Omnichannel Inventory uses three objects to represent the facilities that fulfill orders: Location, Location Group, and Location Group Assignment. The complete set of locations, groups, and assignments is called a location graph. When using D2C Commerce, your location graph is limited to one location and one location group.
Location
Tracks inventory availability for a location, such as a warehouse or retail store.
Location Group
Aggregates inventory availability for a group of related locations, such as within a defined geographic area or belonging to a common brand or store. When a shopper orders through a sales channel associated with a location group, the order can be fulfilled from any location or set of locations in that group. In B2B and D2C Commerce, you can associate a location group with a site or store by using the corresponding inventory list.
Location Group Assignment
The relationship between a location and a location group. A location group has one assignment for each of its locations, and a location has one assignment for each location group that it belongs to.
