Inventory quantities are difficult to keep synchronized across sales channels

Context
The problem arises when inventory is listed on several sales channels and quantities need to be updated across them as orders are fulfilled.
Current workaround
Manually update inventory, or modify inventory templates while looking for a system that can connect channel quantities.
What it costs
A missed manual update can lead to overselling stock that is no longer available.
What would count as better
Inventory quantity changes are communicated across the connected sales channels without relying on manual updates.

What already exists

Existing products outside the platform that solve the problem fully or in part. A place on this list cannot be bought: the order comes only from verdicts of people who have the problem. The problem stays open either way.
