1. Overview

With this functionality, you will be able to block/book inventory for your clients directly from our Sales Agent App. Before checking the inventory functionality, clients need to ask the ANAROCK CRM SPOC to integrate the inventory for their respective projects/mandatory. Once integrated, it will start reflecting on the Sales Agent App.

Note: There are 2 types of Inventory access for the Sales Agent- View Only & All Access.

- View Only: Sales agents will only be able to view the inventory in real-time as per the status along with the plot details, pricing, & payment plans.

- All Access: Sales agents can view inventory along with the option to block, generate quotations, and book for the lead.

The above-mentioned roles can be managed from Inventory Settings.

V. Auto & manual unblocking for the blocked inventory

Inventory blocking comes with auto-unblocking and manual-unblocking features.

- Auto-unblocking: When the Sales Agent has blocked the inventory for a particular lead and it crosses the release time, then the unit will be automatically unblocked. If the set release time is less than 24 hrs, then the unit will be unblocked within 24 hrs. Whereas, if the release time is set for 1 day or more, then the unit will be released at midnight of the respective end day.

- Manual-unblocking: In this case, the sales agent has the control to release the unit as required.
