First Claim
1. A computer program product tangibly embodied in an information carrier, the computer program product including instructions that, when executed, perform operations for taking actions on stock in a logistic environment system, the operations comprising:
- receiving event information at one or more storage location database objects that each represent a specified storage location for stock in a logistic environment, wherein a storage location database object has associated with it a rule and predefined requirements that are to be maintained for the specified storage location;
determining if the received event information impacts upon a condition created by the requirements such that the condition will not be maintained; and
if so initiating an action, using the rule, to be taken on the storage location associated with the storage location database object so as to maintain the condition.

Abstract
A computer program product tangibly embodied in an information carrier is described. The computer program product includes instructions that, when executed, perform operations for taking actions on stock in a logistic environment system. The operations include receiving event information at one or more storage location database objects that each represents a specified storage location for stock in a logistic environment. The storage location database object has associated with it a rule and predefined requirements that are to be maintained for the specified storage location. The operations also include determining if the received event information impacts upon a condition created by the requirements such that the condition will not be maintained, and if so initiating an action, using the rule, to be taken on the storage location associated with the storage location database object so as to maintain the condition.

19. A logistic environment system for taking actions on stock, comprising:
-
storage location database objects that represent different storage locations to place stock in a logistic environment, wherein the storage location database objects are adapted to receive event information associated with stock;
at least one predefined requirement associated with the storage location database objects, wherein the requirement creates a condition to be maintained for a represented storage location; and
a set of rules that include at least one rule that determines whether the received event information impacts upon the condition such that the condition will not be maintained and initiates an action to be taken on the storage locations associated with the storage location database objects so as to maintain the condition.
