The stock breaks page allows you to view stock breaks for each brand/category/product, including both occurred and forecasted breaks based on current sales and replenishment trends.
The aim of this section is to prevent lost sales due to unawareness of stock breaks.
To access this page, in the Bright Market site, go to Assortment > Stock Breaks.

💡 Stock Breaks
A stock break, or stockout, occurs when a product is no longer available in inventory, either in a store or warehouse, thus becoming unavailable for sale at the time of customer demand. This situation can result in lost sales, diminished customer satisfaction, and potentially harm the brand's reputation if customers consistently encounter unavailable products.
