# Resolve an inventory conflict

Bundus stops a booking from saving normally when another booking has already committed some of the required inventory for the same dates.

### Understand the warning

When you try to save, Bundus displays **Not enough inventory**. The warning names each affected item and shows:

* how many units the booking requests;
* how many units are available; and
* how many units are unavailable.

The inventory line also shows **0 left** when the requested quantity uses more than the remaining stock.

### Resolve the conflict

Use the option that matches what you agreed with the client:

1. Reduce **Qty** to the number available, then save again.
2. Open **Item** and choose a suitable replacement, then check its availability.
3. Change the booking's **Start date** or **End date** if the event can move.
4. Remove the inventory line if it is no longer required.

### Save with the conflict

Only use this option when you deliberately want the booking to remain over-allocated.

1. Select **Save anyway** in the warning.
2. Read the warning again and confirm that your team can resolve the shortage later.
3. Select the save option again.

Bundus saves the booking and flags it with an inventory conflict so it remains visible as work that needs attention.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://bundus.gitbook.io/help/bookings/resolve-an-inventory-conflict.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
