Amazon + DTC: Share Inventory Without Overselling

Amazon and your DTC store selling the same item - the worst fear is each keeping its own inventory book. Unifying to one pool in the pre-positioned warehouse is the root cure for overselling.

1. Point inventory to one pool

Put the same-item stock in the China pre-positioned warehouse; both Amazon and the DTC store pull the same pool via OMS - sell one, deduct one, real-time sync.

2. Keep a safety line for Amazon

Amazon is sensitive to inventory health; set safety stock for FBA transfers in OMS to stop the DTC store from selling everything and starving Amazon.

3. Use the pre-positioned warehouse as forwarding

Inbound bulk goods to the pre-positioned warehouse first, then transfer to FBA / direct-ship to customers by each channel's sales rhythm - no dead stock, hard to stock out. Youmanman Cloud Warehouse supports this inventory forwarding.
