TrunkInventory Migration & Replacement FAQs for ChannelBuffer Studio ❓

Specific answers for teams replacing TrunkInventory with ChannelBuffer Studio.

Why do I still oversell even when I use a real-time inventory sync app?▼

Because 'real-time' marketplace sync still suffers from 3-to-15 minute webhook queues, pending payment holds, and Amazon pending-order delays. If you have 40 units left and broadcast all 40 to Shopify, Amazon, and TikTok Shop during a traffic spike, multiple channels will accept orders for the same physical units before the quantity update propagates.

What happens if my Amazon Pre-Fulfillment Cancel Rate exceeds 2.5%?▼

Amazon requires sellers to maintain a Pre-Fulfillment Cancel Rate below 2.5%. Canceling seller-fulfilled orders due to out-of-stock errors strips your Buy Box share, penalizes organic ranking, and risks FBM listing deactivation.

Why shouldn't I set the same 20% holdback buffer on every sales channel?▼

Holding back 20% on your own high-margin Shopify store artificially throttles your most profitable sales. Instead, our margin-weighted waterfall publishes 95%–100% of available stock to your highest-margin DTC storefront while applying stricter 15%–30% holdback cushions to high-penalty, lower-margin marketplaces.

How does ChannelBuffer handle virtual bundles and 3-pack kits that share the same base SKU?▼

If a base SKU has 120 units in your 3PL, a 3-pack bundle has a theoretical maximum of 40 kits. However, publishing 120 single units AND 40 3-packs simultaneously creates 240 units of exposure. Our calculator partitions shared component inventory so single units and multipacks never collide.

Do I need to grant OAuth read/write access to my Shopify, Amazon, or TikTok accounts?▼

No. All multi-channel buffer calculations and CSV feed generations execute 100% locally in your browser tab. Your SKU velocities, supplier costs, and channel margins stay on your machine.

What is included in the $19 one-time buyout compared to TrunkInventory ($99/mo)?▼

You unlock lifetime access to the multi-channel holdback allocation table, virtual bundle component splitter, marketplace SLA defect estimator, and instant CSV export—with zero monthly subscription fees and a 14-day refund policy.
