Abstract

A system and method in a network-based inventory management system (150) for providing information concerning inventory amounts and inventory ordering to at least one computer. In operation, a server first receives an inventory amount of an item from a first plurality of clients (310,320). Next, the server receives an inv entory amount of the item from a second plurality of clients. Once the server has the two amounts, it analyzes the inventories (420) at said first and second plurality of computers to determine from which of the first plurality of computers to order the item and to which of the second plurality of computers the ordered item is to be transferred.
