Make range decisions with the evidence.

Every range decision commits shelf space and stock. A poor choice can leave slow sellers occupying both while shoppers look elsewhere. Duvo brings item sales, margin, and customer need into the review, checks supply constraints and stock exit, and prepares listing or delisting decisions for the category owner before the range changes.

    Approval

    Exceptions pause for the named owner

    Each exception carries the source records, applied rule, recommended action, and the person authorised to decide.

  2. 2

    Range decision

    Range decision is visible before the action

    Each proposal shows the item role, evidence, readiness checks, and approval needed before the range changes.

Turn range proposals into controlled additions, changes, and exits.

Commercial, category, supply, space, and master-data constraints must agree before an item can enter or leave a customer, channel, or store range.
