A method may include identifying a total number of units of a plurality of items to be stored in one or more fulfillment centers. In some cases, the items may be a product or a group of products. The method may also include receiving an order forecast of expected orders for each of the plurality of items and determining, for each of the plurality of items, a portion of the expected orders that is expected to be fulfilled by the one or more fulfillment centers.
