# Set Facility-Wise Safety Stock

Use a safety stock rule when the same inventory reserve should apply to a group of facilities.

1. Identify or create the facility groups that need a shared safety stock value. See [Manage facility groups](https://github.com/hotwax/oms-documentation/tree/user-guides-pub/documents/system-admin/administration/facilities/manage-groups.md).
2. Open the **Order Routing Rules** app, then go to `Sourcing` > `Safety stock`.
3. Select the add button and enter the rule `Name` and `Safety stock` value.
4. Turn on `Select all facility groups`, or add at least one group under `Included`. Add groups under `Excluded` only to remove them from the included scope.
5. Optional: Narrow the rule with product tags or product features.
6. Review the impacted facility count, then save the rule.
7. Run or schedule the safety stock computation.

The generated sourcing output must be imported and processed before the values apply in HotWax Commerce. See [Configure safety stock rules](/documents/retail-operations/inventory/available-to-promise/safety-stock-rules.md) for the complete rule, sequence, and schedule workflow.

## 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://docs.hotwax.co/documents/retail-operations/inventory/safety-stock/facility-wise-safety-stock.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.
