# Inventory

Inventory refers to the quantity and availability of products that a business has in stock and can sell to customers through its online store. It is important for businesses to have a well-managed inventory to ensure that they are able to meet customer demands and avoid stockouts or overstocking, which can impact their profitability.

The Inventory Section allows the merchant to manage how stock is tracked and the stock levels of all the products on the website in one place rather than having to go and manage it product by product.

On the Inventory Page, you can change how the products are tracked, see how much you have On Hand, see what has been reserved and what has been committed.\
\
On Hand - How much stock you have at the Warehouse.

Reserved - An order has been created and stock is reserved.

Committed - An order has been placed and paid for.
