Allocated Stock :

What does this term stand for?

 Allocated stock refers to inventory that has been reserved or earmarked for a specific customer, sales order, production requirement, or contractual obligation. While this inventory remains physically present in the warehouse or distribution center, it is not available for general sale or alternative use until the allocation is fulfilled or released. This intentional reservation process ensures that committed demand is prioritized and protected from being sold to other customers or diverted to different purposes.
