I'm looking to understand how inventory management works and why it's crucial, especially in the context of e-commerce. How does it differ from traditional inventory systems, and what makes it so important for online businesses?

Hi!

Inventory management is essential because it helps businesses keep track of their stock levels, avoid overstocking or running out of products, and ensure smooth operations. In e-commerce, it plays a critical role as customer expectations for fast and accurate order fulfillment are high. Managing inventory effectively means having the right products available at the right time to meet demand.

The topic of inventory management is too broad. You'll have to dig on the internet to learn about that.
I can, however, give you some pointers on some of the issues that logistics managers face.
