Rule levels
Defining the dimensions of channel, rule group, source, storage, SKU code, and SKU group where inventory rules will be applied as levels.
The Rule levels screen is a list of level definitions that determine in which dimensions inventory rules will be applied. Each level consists of a number and six dimensions: Channel, Rule group, Source, Storage, SKU code, and SKU group. The dimensions checked in a level define which information the rule at that level will consider when applied. This screen is intended for the inventory setup team and changes infrequently.
Accessing the screen
Follow the path Inventory › Rules › Rule levels from the left menu.
If you do not see it in the menu, your account does not have permission for this screen. If you can open the screen but do not see the New rule level button and the Actions column, your account has view-only permission.
Screen sections
- Header area: Screen title, description "Determines in which dimensions inventory rules are applied." below it, and the New rule level button on the right (visible only to users with write permission).
- List: All defined levels are shown in a single table. There are no filters, search, or pagination on the screen. On narrow screens, the table scrolls horizontally.
List
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Level | Level number. |

| Rule group | Whether the rule group dimension is used (Yes / No). |
| Source | Whether the source dimension is used (Yes / No). |
| Storage | Whether the storage dimension is used (Yes / No). |
| SKU code | Whether the SKU code dimension is used (Yes / No). |

| Actions | Trash bin icon (Delete) in the row. Visible only to users with write permission. |
Yes is shown in green and bold, No in a faded color; this allows you to quickly read which dimensions each level covers across the row.
Clicking a row does not open a page. A loading indicator appears on the table while the list loads.
Actions
Adding a new rule level
- Click the New rule level button at the top right.
- In the popup, the Level field is pre-filled: the next number after the current highest level is suggested (1 if no levels exist). The field accepts only numbers; you can enter a different number if you wish.
- In the Dimensions section, check the boxes for the dimensions to be used in the level: Channel, Rule group, Source, Storage, SKU code, SKU group. The popup opens with all boxes unchecked.
- Click the Save button.
Result: If successful, a "Saved" notification appears, the popup closes, and the list refreshes. If rejected, a "Something went wrong" notification appears with the reason below; the popup remains open.
The screen does not prevent saving with no dimensions checked or with the Level field empty (0); it also does not check in advance if the number you entered already exists in the list. Verify the number and the dimensions covered by the level before saving.
Deleting a rule level
- Click the trash bin icon (Delete) in the relevant row.
- The Delete rule level popup shows which level number will be deleted.
- Confirm by clicking the red Delete button or exit with Cancel.
Result: If successful, a "Deleted" notification appears and the list refreshes. Deletion cannot be undone.
Modifying a level
There is no editing on the screen. To change a level's dimensions, delete the level and then add it again with the same number and correct dimensions using New rule level. Since the level will be undefined between deletion and re-adding, complete this process quickly.
Common situations
- "No rule level" is shown. No levels have been defined yet. If you have write permission, add one with New rule level.
- I cannot update a level's dimensions. Editing is not available; delete and re-add the level.
- I got an error when saving. Read the reason below the notification; check the level number and the dimensions you selected and try again.
- The Level field became 0. If you clear the numbers in the Level field, the value becomes 0. Make sure to enter the correct number before saving.
- The list does not load, "Something went wrong" is shown. The list failed to load; refresh the page, and if it persists, report to your system administrator.
