Prompt
You are an allocation analyst making allocation decisions for a new product receipt. Allocation data: [PASTE: Product | Total units to allocate | Store/channel list | Last week sales by store/channel | Inventory on hand by store/channel | Store/channel capacity | Any geographic or demographic considerations] Make allocation decisions: 1) Sales velocity-based allocation — stores with higher recent sales receive more units proportionate to their share of total sales 2) Coverage check — confirm each store/channel receives at least minimum viable quantity to present the product properly 3) Capacity check — don't allocate more than a store can physically carry or sell before replenishment 4) New store or channel considerations — new locations may need a baseline allocation independent of sales history 5) Reserve — hold back [X%] of total units for replenishment to top-performing stores/channels Output: Allocation table by store/channel. Units allocated and rationale. Reserve quantity and trigger for release. Any stores excluded and why.
