For instance, if there are 100 units in stock and the allocation is 80% for Lazada and 90% for Shopee, then 80 units will be reserved for Lazada and 90 units for Shopee. | Sales Channel | Allocation | Quantity Allocated | | ------------- | ---------- | ------------------ | | Lazada | 90% | 90 | | Shopee | 80% | 80 | | | | Total: 100 | The allocation is **not a static value**, as it may change based on sales performance. For example, if 7 units are sold on Lazada and 3 units on Shopee, the total sold units will be 10, and the allocation for Lazada will be recalculated to 80% of the remaining 90 units, which is now 72 units, while the allocation for Shopee will be 90% of the remaining 90 units, which is now 81 units. | Sales Channel | Allocation | Quantity Allocated | | ------------- | ---------- | ------------------ | | Lazada | 90% | 81 | | Shopee | 80% | 72 | | | | Total: 90 | {% hint style="info" %} Stock allocation can be used to help sellers allocate stock to different channels based on their demand and prevent overselling. {% endhint %} There are two methods to update allocation in Sellercraft: 1.
