Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of this disclosure generally relate to the field of inventory management, and more specifically to methods, apparatus, devices, media, and products for displaying inventory. Background Technology

[0002] In e-commerce platforms, users typically manage inventory information based on real-time monitoring. They can utilize the platform's inventory management system to view real-time data such as current inventory levels, pre-sale inventory, and returned goods awaiting warehousing. By setting inventory alert thresholds, they receive timely notifications when inventory falls below a set value, preventing stockouts. For best-selling items, users prepare inventory in advance based on historical sales data and market trends, while for slow-moving items, they reduce inventory buildup through promotional activities, ensuring a reasonable inventory structure.

[0003] In addition, users optimize inventory turnover through refined operations. They categorize and manage goods, such as differentiating inventory by specifications and colors, for precise control; they also connect to the order system to automatically deduct corresponding inventory after an order is generated, and handle inventory changes caused by returns and exchanges simultaneously. Some users also utilize multi-warehouse collaboration functions to allocate inventory based on the nearest warehouse according to the order address, shortening logistics time, reducing warehousing costs, and improving overall inventory management efficiency.

[0025] It is understood that the data involved in this technical solution (including but not limited to the data itself, the acquisition or use of the data) shall comply with the requirements of relevant laws, regulations and related provisions.

[0026] It is understood that before using the technical solutions disclosed in the various embodiments of this disclosure, users should be informed of the types, scope of use, and usage scenarios of the personal information involved in this disclosure in an appropriate manner in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, and user authorization should be obtained.

[0027] For example, upon receiving a user's proactive request, a prompt message is sent to the user to explicitly inform them that the requested operation will require the acquisition and use of the user's personal information. This allows the user to independently choose whether to provide personal information to the software or hardware, such as the electronic device, application, server, or storage medium performing the operations of this disclosed technical solution, based on the prompt message.

[0028] As an optional but non-limiting implementation, in response to a user's active request, sending a prompt message to the user can be done via a pop-up window, where the prompt message can be presented in text format. Furthermore, the pop-up window can also include a selection control allowing the user to choose "agree" or "disagree" to provide personal information to the electronic device.

[0029] It is understood that the above notification and user authorization process are merely illustrative and do not constitute a limitation on the implementation of this disclosure. Other methods that comply with relevant laws and regulations may also be applied to the implementation of this disclosure.

[0030] Embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While some embodiments of this disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of this disclosure. It should be understood that the accompanying drawings and embodiments of this disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0031] In the description of embodiments of this disclosure, the term "comprising" and similar terms should be understood as open-ended inclusion, i.e., "including but not limited to". The term "based on" should be understood as "at least partially based on". The term "one embodiment" or "the embodiment" should be understood as "at least one embodiment". The terms "first", "second", etc., may refer to different or the same objects. Other explicit and implicit definitions may also be included below.

[0032] When processing e-commerce inventory information, merchants often need to view and understand inventory status from different sources and destinations on the platform, including product inventory, regional inventory, promotional inventory, and channel inventory. Currently, mainstream e-commerce platforms generally present inventory information in the form of lists or tables, supporting management operations by listing data such as the quantity in stock and reserved in different warehouses. While this approach provides intuitive digital records in basic scenarios, its display and management methods are gradually becoming inadequate as businesses diversify and inventory management dimensions increase.

[0033] However, in actual operation, this inventory presentation method, primarily based on lists and tables, has significant shortcomings. Merchants need to switch between different pages and tables to understand the complete flow of inventory, making it difficult to intuitively identify the source and destination of inventory. Especially when dealing with bundled products, regional inventory, or inventory occupied by multiple promotions, information fragmentation is severe, requiring merchants to manually compare and integrate data, which is cumbersome and prone to errors. At the same time, the existing system lacks the ability to visually represent complex inventory relationships and cannot provide a unified display framework for multi-dimensional inventory logic. This makes inventory management inefficient, costly to understand, and unable to meet the management needs of businesses under high-frequency adjustments and rapid iterations.

[0034] Therefore, embodiments of this disclosure propose a method for displaying inventory. In this method, a computing device can display a target object and interactive elements related to the inventory of that target object on a user interface. If the computing device receives an interactive operation on an interactive element, it can display detailed information about the target object's inventory on the user interface, including inventory occupancy information. This method utilizes interactive elements for each target object to display inventory occupancy information, improving inventory management efficiency and enabling users to better understand inventory occupancy, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0035] The embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 The illustration shows an example environment in which the devices and / or methods of embodiments of the present disclosure may be implemented. In environment 100, computing device 102 may be used to visualize the source and destination of merchandise inventory.

[0036] Examples of computing device 102 include, but are not limited to, personal computers, server computers, handheld or laptop devices, mobile devices (such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), media players, etc.), multiprocessor systems, consumer electronics, minicomputers, mainframe computers, and distributed computing environments that include any of the above systems or devices.

[0037] The computing device 102 can be used to provide users with object-specific management information, such as providing object management interface information. In one example, the object can be a product. Therefore, the computing device 102 can provide inventory management information about the target object for display on the user interface. Thus, when the object is a product, the computing device can provide inventory management information for the product. For example, the computing device 102 can provide display information item 112 that can display information about the target object. For example, display information item 112 can be a column area in the user interface that displays multiple interactive elements, including the target object 104, the inventory mode for the target object, the object creation time, total inventory, unused inventory, and various types of operations related to the inventory.

[0038] For example, interactive element 106, one of several interactive elements, can be used to display detailed information about the inventory corresponding to the target object 104. Other interactive elements can be used to perform other operations on the inventory, such as editing or updating it. Additionally, interactive elements can be any type of element used to obtain user action information and perform certain operations, such as controls or labels.

[0039] If a user clicks on interactive element 106, computing device 106 can receive an interaction operation 110 for that interactive element. Then, computing device 106 can obtain detailed inventory information 108 for the target object 104 corresponding to that interactive element. This information could include, for example, inventory occupancy information for the target object 104 to describe the destination of the inventory. Additionally, this detailed information may also include the source of the target object, such as warehouse information describing which warehouses the target object is stored in, or different storage types in different warehouses, such as spot goods, pre-sale batches, etc.

[0040] In some embodiments, when displaying detailed inventory location information for a target object, if the target object has inventory information represented by inventory units, the detailed information can display inventory unit occupancy information for each inventory unit. For example, if the garment has multiple different colors, and each color is considered an inventory unit, the inventory unit occupancy information for each color of the garment can be further displayed. Furthermore, for each inventory unit information, activity occupancy information and / or channel occupancy information corresponding to that inventory unit information can also be displayed in association.

[0041] Alternatively, the target object can be a single object corresponding to a type of item; or it can be a composite object consisting of multiple sub-objects, each sub-object corresponding to a type of item, such as a teapot and teacups sold as a set, where one teapot and four teacups constitute a target object.

[0042] This method utilizes interactive elements for each target object to display inventory occupancy information, improving inventory management efficiency and enabling users to better understand inventory occupancy, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0043] The above combination Figure 1 The following is a schematic diagram illustrating an example environment in which some embodiments of this disclosure may be implemented, in conjunction with... Figure 2 A schematic diagram illustrating an example method for displaying inventory according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 2 The method in can be derived from Figure 1 The computing device 102 or any suitable device in the system can be used for execution.

[0044] like Figure 2As shown, at box 202, computing device 102 displays a target object and interactive elements related to the target object's inventory on a user interface. Typically, information about the target object can be displayed on the user interface; for example, the target object could be a product to be sold. Therefore, information related to the inventory management of the target object can be presented to the user on the user interface, such as the inventory pattern related to the target object, the target object's creation time, total inventory information, and interactive elements related to the target object's inventory. These interactive elements can be used to view detailed inventory information of the target object. Additionally, other interactive elements may be included on the user interface, such as interactive elements for users to edit or change inventory. In one example, the interactive elements are implemented using controls. In another example, the interactive elements may be implemented using labels. The above examples are merely for describing this disclosure and are not intended to specifically limit this disclosure. Additionally, the target object may have an object identifier.

[0045] In some embodiments, the target object can be a single object, such as a single item. In some embodiments, the target object can be a composite object comprising multiple sub-objects, such as items sold as a set. The target object can have multiple Stock Keeping Units (SKUs). A Stock Keeping Unit is a code used to identify and track a specific item in inventory. Each SKU represents a specific item and can be used to manage inventory and track sales. If the target object is a single object, the inventory per Stock Keeping Unit is determined by the number of SKUs within that single object. For the composite object, the inventory per Stock Keeping Unit is determined by the number of one of the multiple sub-objects, such as the sub-object with the fewest items.

[0046] At box 202, in response to receiving an interaction action for an interactive element, detailed information about the target object's inventory is displayed on the user interface. This detailed information includes the target object's inventory availability. Users can interact with the interactive element by clicking or long-pressing it. After receiving the interaction action, the computing device can further display detailed information about the target object's inventory on the user interface. In one example, this detailed information includes the target object's inventory availability. In another example, this detailed information includes the target object's inventory availability and inventory source or warehouse information for the target object's inventory.

[0047] When displaying detailed inventory information for a target object on a user interface, the computing device can retrieve the target object's inventory availability information from an object information repository after receiving an interactive action for an interactive element. The computing device then displays the target object's inventory availability information on the user interface. For example, the computing device can display the inventory availability information for the target object in a tree diagram format.

[0048] In some embodiments, the computing device may first determine whether the inventory occupancy information includes inventory occupancy information at the unit level. Since the granularity of inventory division differs for different objects, some objects include at least one inventory unit. Therefore, the inventory occupancy information for objects can be divided based on the unit level, thereby forming inventory unit occupancy information for each inventory unit. However, the inventory of some objects is not divided at the unit level, and is displayed directly as the object's inventory information.

[0049] If the inventory holding information does not include inventory holding information at the unit level, then the inventory holding information for the target object is directly obtained, and then displayed at the object level. Additionally, the activities participated in by the target object and their corresponding object holding information can also be displayed.

[0050] If the computing device determines that the inventory occupancy information includes inventory occupancy information at the unit level, it can display inventory unit occupancy information for a set of inventory units targeting a specific object. Additionally, the computing device can further acquire target occupancy information related to each inventory unit in the set. In one example, the target occupancy information includes activity occupancy information for the target object. In another example, the target occupancy information includes channel occupancy information. In yet another example, the target occupancy information includes both activity occupancy information and channel occupancy information for the target object. Additionally, the activity occupancy information can be activity occupancy information for one or more activities, with each activity having a corresponding activity information item when there are multiple activities. Similarly, the channel occupancy information can be occupancy information for one or more channels. When there are multiple channels, each channel has a corresponding channel information item. Each channel can also participate in different activities, and corresponding inventory occupancy information can also exist for activities within that channel. The computing device can then display the target occupancy information in association with the inventory unit occupancy information. For example, the computing device can display the inventory unit occupancy information and the target occupancy information in a tree diagram format.

[0051] In some embodiments, users can also interact with activity occupancy information or channel occupancy information. The activity occupancy information and channel occupancy information may include interactive elements related to the activity or channel. By clicking these interactive elements, users can learn more about the target object's participation in the activity or its position within the channel. Therefore, if an interaction is received regarding activity occupancy information, the computing device can display detailed information about the target object's participation in the activity. If an interaction is received regarding channel occupancy information, detailed information about the target object's position within the channel is displayed.

[0052] In addition to displaying inventory unit occupancy information, the user interface can also include a search window to search for inventory occupancy information related to inventory units. For example, it can accept user input of a target inventory unit for the query. For instance, the identifier of the target inventory unit can be entered. The computing device then searches for the target inventory unit within a set of inventory units. If the target inventory unit exists in the set, it can display the inventory unit occupancy information corresponding to the target inventory unit in a first display state, and display the inventory unit occupancy information corresponding to other inventory units in the set in a second display state. For example, the inventory information corresponding to the found target inventory unit can be highlighted, such as by bolding or highlighting; while inventory information not corresponding to the target inventory unit can be displayed in light gray to distinguish it from the target inventory unit's inventory information. If no information corresponding to the target inventory unit is found, the information is not displayed on the user interface, and a prompt message can be displayed to indicate that the input may be incorrect and to encourage the user to re-enter the information.

[0053] In some embodiments, upon receiving an interactive operation for an interactive element, for each inventory unit in a set of inventory units, in addition to obtaining inventory occupancy information, the computing device further obtains warehouse information of a set of warehouses used to store the inventory for that inventory unit. Therefore, the computing device can further obtain the source of the inventory for that inventory unit. The warehouse information of this set of warehouses includes the distribution of the inventory for that inventory unit. For example, the quantity of target objects contained in each warehouse in the North China and South China warehouses, and each warehouse may further include information on the inventory type, such as spot goods, pre-sale batches, etc. The warehouse information can then be displayed on the user interface in association with the inventory unit occupancy information. The warehouse information includes the quantity of inventory units of the target objects stored in each warehouse in the set of warehouses.

[0054] This method utilizes interactive elements for each target object to display inventory occupancy information, improving inventory management efficiency and enabling users to better understand inventory occupancy, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0055] The above combination Figure 2 Schematic diagrams of example methods for displaying inventory according to some embodiments of the present disclosure are described below. Figure 3 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of an entry point to a product inventory occupancy interface according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0056] Example 300's interface presents the core inventory information of a product, including key fields such as product information, inventory mode, product creation time, total inventory, unused inventory, used inventory, inventory diagnostics and operations, allowing users to directly access the inventory usage details page from the list level.

[0057] The product information section lists products and styles in different states, such as product name 'a' and style name, along with the inventory mode and associated warehouse quantity. The corresponding inventory data clearly displays the total inventory, unused inventory, and used inventory. For example, product ID 23895 has a total inventory of 888 units, of which 738 are unused, 100 are used by channels, and the remaining inventory includes detailed classifications such as SKU activity usage and channel product usage.

[0058] The inventory diagnostics and operations sections on the right side of the table provide management and traceability functions: inventory diagnostics can display out-of-stock, alerts, and medium-out-of-stock subscription prompts, while the operations area supports "Edit Inventory," "View Inventory Usage Details," and "Inventory Change Records," providing users with direct access to the inventory usage interface to further view or adjust data. "View Inventory Usage Details" corresponds to... Figure 2 Interactive tags in [the context].

[0059] This method allows users to quickly browse product inventory status and access the inventory details page with one click for in-depth operations, effectively improving inventory management efficiency and user experience.

[0060] The above combination Figure 3 The diagram illustrates an example of an entry point to the product inventory occupancy interface, representing some embodiments of this disclosure. The following is in conjunction with... Figure 4 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of an inventory management page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown in Example 400, an inventory management interface is presented. Its design, based on the e-commerce inventory management logic in the document, visualizes the multi-dimensional inventory information of merchants on the platform. The main view area displays an inventory overview of product 'a', including basic data such as product identifier (product ID), product status, inventory type (e.g., regional inventory), total inventory, and SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) usage. It also provides a fuzzy search function by SKU ID, enabling users to quickly locate and query the inventory status of different SKUs. This translates the abstract model of "where does inventory come from and where does it go" into the user interface, forming a structured display framework.

[0062] In the inventory details of product A, the total inventory is 6000 units, of which 1500 units are occupied by different business scenarios, and the remaining 4500 units are available inventory. The interface is further refined to style A, style B, and style C, corresponding to three inventory units, and displays the total inventory and occupancy status of each. For example, style A has a total inventory of 2000 units, of which 1000 units are occupied, and the logical inventory from different sources is clearly distinguished: activity occupancy (activity A occupies 700 units), bundled product occupancy (activity B occupies 200 units, including bundled product ID and SKUID mapping), and channel activity occupancy (activity C occupies 100 units), and further subdivided into channel activity occupancy (activity D 20 units, activity E 80 units). Style B also clearly presents a total inventory of 800 units and the occupancy distribution of 500 units. This hierarchical design reflects the multi-dimensional management concept of SKU, product, activity, and channel inventory, ensuring the consistency between inventory occupancy logic and actual inventory status.

[0063] This layered, graphical display method presents complex inventory sources, occupancy relationships, and logical locking status in an intuitive way, significantly reducing the burden on merchants to manually compare and integrate information across different pages and tables. It achieves high aggregation and readability of inventory data, and also reserves space for future business expansion at the visualization level, further improving merchants' understanding and management efficiency of e-commerce inventory models.

[0064] The above combination Figure 4 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of an inventory management page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided below; in conjunction with... Figure 5 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of fuzzy querying inventory occupancy based on inventory units according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0065] like Figure 5 As shown in Example 500, the inventory details after a fuzzy search based on the SKUID are displayed. The main display area retains basic information about product 'a', including product ID 23895, product status, inventory type (regional inventory), total inventory quantity of 6000, and SKU inventory usage of 1500. An SKU ID search bar is also provided; here, SKU "23890" has been entered and a search operation has been performed.

[0066] In the interface, the computing device highlights and automatically centers the style 'a' corresponding to SKU 23890 that matches the search criteria, making it easy for users to focus on the inventory status information of that SKU. Meanwhile, style 'b' and other SKU-related data are presented in gray and set to non-clickable, effectively reducing user interference and emphasizing the uniqueness and visualization of the search results.

[0067] From the inventory structure display, the total inventory of product A is still shown in the center of the page (total inventory 6000 units, 1500 units occupied, 4500 units unoccupied). However, the details of style A are highlighted: total inventory 2000 units, 1000 units occupied, further broken down into activity-occupied (activity A 700 units), bundled item-occupied (activity B 200 units), and channel-occupied (activity C 100 units). The bundled items also include mapping information between the bundled product ID and SKU ID. The grayed-out data for style B (total inventory 4000 units, 500 units occupied) is for structural reference only and cannot be further processed.

[0068] This approach, through a combination of fuzzy search, highlighting, and grayscale masking, enables precise positioning and efficient visualization of SKU-level inventory. It allows users to quickly locate target SKUs in complex inventory systems and instantly view their inventory usage details, significantly improving the operational experience and accuracy of inventory management.

[0069] The above combination Figure 5 The following is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of fuzzy querying inventory occupancy based on inventory units according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 6 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of a product activity page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0070] Example 600 demonstrates the overall interface layout and function entry points for merchants to manage their products' participation in activities within the platform. The top of the interface features a status statistics module related to the activity, displaying categories such as all products on sale, awaiting registration, registered, and unavailable for registration. It also visually presents the number of products in each status—under review, registration error, successful registration, rejected review, and cancelled—using numerical boxes to help users quickly grasp the overall progress of their products in the activity.

[0071] The central section of the page provides functions related to product promotion operations, including buttons for creating a promotional atmosphere, exiting the promotion, and viewing promotion details, along with auxiliary options such as "Automatic registration without price change" and "Disable function." The product information area displays basic data for example product A, including price, final price, total inventory, and product category, and indicates its registration status in the promotion. The interface also supports batch operations, such as online batch processing, allowing merchants to manage multiple products in bulk.

[0072] This method fully presents the core information and interaction logic of the product activity page, enabling users to efficiently view the progress of the product activity, adjust their registration status, or withdraw from the activity.

[0073] The above combination Figure 6 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of a product activity page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided below. Figure 7A schematic diagram illustrating an example of a channel product management page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0074] Example 700 demonstrates the overall interface layout for merchants to manage and operate channel products on the platform. The top of the interface clearly labels "Channel Product Management".

[0075] The statistics module at the top of the page displays core data related to channel products, including the number of channel products and the trend information of "11 more than last week", as well as the change data of the number of channel products set and "3 more than last week". It also retains the display position of summary indicators such as "total channel product orders". These data blocks provide merchants with key dynamics of channel product operations over the past 7 days.

[0076] The central area of ​​the page is used for the specific management and query of channel products, displaying the main product ID and channel product information, and providing functions for filtering by channel type and setting the effective time. The interface also provides management buttons for batch uploading, batch delisting, batch modification, and more operations, facilitating merchants to quickly adjust channel products in batches. The bottom displays product information and detailed status of channel products, including product name 'a', channel product status, remaining inventory, channel product price, and effective time.

[0077] This method integrates data statistics, batch operations, and channel product status management functions, enabling merchants to efficiently grasp the listing status and inventory status of channel products and improve the user experience.

[0078] The above combination Figure 7 The diagram illustrates an example of a channel product management page according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, which is described below in conjunction with... Figure 8 A schematic diagram illustrating commodity warehouse information and examples of activity occupancy according to some embodiments of this disclosure.

[0079] Example 800 shows the image-mode interface for inventory details. The top of the interface lists the basic information of product A, including product ID, product status, inventory type, and total inventory (total inventory 6000, SKU occupied inventory 1500), and provides a fuzzy search bar for SKU name / ID and "Search, Reset" operation buttons. The "List Mode / Image Mode" switch design in the upper right corner highlights the system's support for diverse display methods.

[0080] In the inventory display section, the interface uses product 'a' as the root node (total inventory 4345), and below it, it is divided into style a (SKU1, SKUID 23900, total inventory 2345) and style b (SKU2, SKUID 23901, total inventory 2000) by SKU level. Each SKU is further subdivided into two categories: warehouse information and occupancy information. Style a displays the inventory in the default warehouse (2345 units), which is further broken down into in-stock (345 units), pre-sale batch 1 (1000 units), and pre-sale batch 2 (1000 units). The occupancy information shows that activity 1 occupies 400 units, activity 2 occupies 600 units, and marks 1345 units of unoccupied inventory. Style b is similarly broken down into the North China warehouse (1000 units) and the South China warehouse (1000 units) and their corresponding in-stock and pre-sale information, while also clearly indicating 2000 units of unoccupied inventory.

[0081] This tree-structured visual presentation intuitively integrates multiple pieces of information, such as product inventory, SKU dimensions, warehouse distribution, activity allocation, and pre-sale batches, onto a single page, eliminating the need for merchants to switch between multiple lists and tables. This effectively reduces the cost of understanding inventory information and significantly improves the readability and operational efficiency of inventory management.

[0082] The above combination Figure 8 A schematic diagram illustrating goods warehouse information and examples of activity occupancy according to some embodiments of this disclosure is provided below. Figure 9 A schematic diagram illustrating an example of the status of a product card according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0083] Figure 9 Example 900 illustrates the display effect of inventory cards in different states, clarifying the presentation logic of inventory information on the e-commerce platform's front-end interface. The overall interface is divided into four state examples, corresponding to the default state, inventory of 0 or alarm, highlighted when searching for inventory units, and inventory of 0 or alarm and selected. Each state card uses "Inventory Used, Total Inventory, Unused, Style Information, and Product ID" as core fields, maintaining a consistent structured layout to facilitate users' quick retrieval of core inventory data.

[0084] By default, cards are displayed in a standard format, such as total inventory of style A being 2000, occupied 1000, and unoccupied 1000, with the numbers and background maintaining a normal visual effect. When inventory is 0 or an alarm is triggered (as shown in the example on the bottom left), the system clearly marks the inventory value as "0" and triggers the alarm notification logic to guide the user to pay attention to inventory anomalies. When searching for inventory units, the card triggers a number highlighting and background color enhancement effect. As shown in the style A card in the upper right corner, it not only displays the total inventory of 2000, occupied 1000, and unoccupied 1000, but also visually emphasizes the SKU information currently matched in the search. When inventory is 0 and the item is selected, the card also retains the highlighting effect and adds background color, further reminding the user that the SKU or style is in an inventory alarm state.

[0085] This method, through a combination of highlighted numbers, changing background colors, and status labels, provides users with a clear mechanism for identifying inventory status, allowing inventory anomalies (such as zero inventory) or search results to be displayed instantly on the interface. This design not only enhances the interactive experience of e-commerce platform inventory management interfaces but also effectively reduces the risk of users missing abnormal inventory information, thus improving the user experience.

[0086] The above combination Figure 9 A schematic diagram illustrating examples of product card states according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided below. Figure 10 A schematic diagram illustrating examples of target product occupancy according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0087] Example 1000 shows the activity inventory usage details interface of the product dimension of the e-commerce platform. The top of the interface provides basic information about product A, including product ID (23895), product status (selling), inventory type (regional inventory) and total inventory data (total inventory 6000 units, SKU inventory usage 1500 units), and displays "in stock mode" to provide background for subsequent inventory data interpretation.

[0088] In the main display section, the interface clearly states, "The following is the activity inventory usage at the product level, without specifying the quantity used for each individual inventory unit," indicating that the interface summarizes data at the overall product level, rather than down to the SKU or warehouse level. The right side lists the details of inventory usage for three activities in a hierarchical structure: Activity A uses 200 units, Activity B uses 100 units, and Channel Activity C uses 10 units. Each activity information provides an interactive "View Activity" entry, allowing users to further track inventory usage information. Simultaneously, the bottom of the interface displays the inventory structure for style A, including a total inventory of 2000 units, 1000 units used, and 1000 units not used, providing a data foundation for activity inventory allocation.

[0089] This method uses a simple tree-like layout to clearly present the inventory holding relationship between activities and channels, enabling users to quickly understand the allocation and locking status of product inventory in a single interface. This reduces the burden on merchants to compare inventory across multiple pages and improves the efficiency of activity management and inventory decision-making.

[0090] The above combination Figure 10 A schematic diagram illustrating examples of target product occupancy according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided below. Figure 11 A schematic diagram illustrating examples of inventory sources and occupancy of bundled goods according to some embodiments of this disclosure.

[0091] Example 1100 illustrates the inventory sources and holding relationships of product set A, presenting the inventory composition logic and distribution in a tree structure. The left side of the diagram lists the overall data for product set A, including a total inventory of 35 units, 8 units of inventory held by inventory units, and 27 units of unheld inventory, providing clear background information for the overall inventory overview.

[0092] Within the main branch, product A is broken down into two parts: product combination 1 and product combination 2. Each product combination further displays detailed information on inventory source and inventory holding. Product combination 1 is associated with sub-products 11 and 12, and its inventory holding information shows 8 units held and 2 units unheld. Product combination 2, on the other hand, has its inventory sourced from sub-products 13 and 14, and its inventory holding information indicates 5 units unheld.

[0093] This method, through a multi-level relationship of "packaged goods - combined goods - sub-goods," fully connects the source, holding, and unholding status of inventory, clarifying how the inventory of packaged goods is aggregated from sub-goods, and the status of inventory holding and remaining. This design aligns with the concept of "visualized expression of inventory source and destination," significantly improving the intuitiveness and management efficiency for merchants when viewing and understanding complex inventory systems.
