Daily store-by-item assortment and availability fact feed for the largest US retail assortment, delivered as incremental bulk files. Grain is store number, operating company code, report date, catalogue item identifier and retailer item number. Beyond the available indicator, the commercially distinctive content is the reason-code decomposition of why an item is NOT transactable at a given store — separate flags for missing aisle, clearance, store capability, compliance, seasonal, prohibited, date-range, do-not-dispose, missing-dimension and item-setup non-publication — plus an omni-transactability indicator, an item-eligible indicator, and a delta flag marking changes. That turns a binary out-of-stock signal into a causal record of assortment failure, which is what makes it valuable: a manufacturer can distinguish losing distribution to a data-quality defect from losing it to compliance or seasonality.
