1. Methods to solve inventory problems.

Firstly, it is necessary to manage the marketing end well, starting from the source, and strengthen the information transparency of the marketing and inventory management departments. The second is to strengthen the information management level of inventory management departments through information management tools. A high-quality inventory management system can provide inventory managers with sufficient warning information and decision-making basis, such as supplier average delivery days, supplier price fluctuations, supply quality trends, supplier value analysis, etc. At the same time, we need to change our mindset, focus on implementation and management, establish and improve auxiliary inventory management systems such as optimizing the management of goods entering and leaving the warehouse (such as prioritizing entry and exit during shelf life), and strengthen inventory management.
