Store Classes let you rank customer locations into tiers — typically A, B, and C — so that higher-priority stores are favored when inventory is allocated and replenishment orders are built.
Store Classes appear under Customers → Store Classes when the feature is enabled for your account.

Creating Store Classes

From Customers → Store Classes, click Add Store Class:
  • Name — the class label (for example “A”, “B”, “C”)
  • Rank — a number that sets the class’s priority order
Drag rows in the list to reorder classes. Editing a class also offers Delete.

Assigning a Class to a Location

Store classes are assigned per customer location (store), not per customer:
  • In RESTOCK → Data Management → Locations, open a location and set its Store Classification.
  • The assignment is stored with the location’s settings and shows as the location’s Rank in Restock views.

Where Store Classes Take Effect

Store classes are used primarily by the RESTOCK module:
  • Inventory allocation — when available supply can’t cover every store, allocation weights higher classes more heavily (A over B over C).
  • Restock Dashboard — each location’s class appears in the Rank column, and class contributes a bonus to the restock priority index.
  • Restock rules — rules can target locations by their Rank (A/B/C), so you can apply different replenishment behavior per tier.
Keep the scheme simple — three classes cover most operations. Reserve “A” for the stores where stockouts hurt the most; that’s where the allocation advantage matters.
