How should a team handle partial live-commerce restock arrivals after a missed wave?
Treat partial arrivals as a cutoff-recovery decision by protecting the next sellable wave, separating ready SKUs from delayed units, and naming one owner for the next release handoff.
Short answer
Treat partial arrivals as a cutoff-recovery decision by protecting the next sellable wave, separating ready SKUs from delayed units, and naming one owner for the next release handoff.
Expanded answer
Partial replenishment arrivals create risk when teams keep chasing the full original request after one live-commerce wave is already missed. The stronger recovery path compares what inventory is already sellable, which stream window can still be protected, and which cutoff owner must approve the next release so the team does not turn one missed wave into repeated stockout exposure.
