to hold inventory is to see if your system is correct and you do actually have the items in stock which your computer system claims you have...

 it is not to locate merchandise near the customer unless you have a facility close to the customer

it is to keep your system up dated ... your balances in check ...  having the correct inventory on hand can improve customer service in regards of making complete shipments the statement would be true
