This improves inventory accuracy and optimizes order logistics.  \n\nWith this configuration, each product is listed on the marketplace based on its warehouse of origin, respecting the handling time and shipping capacity of each location.  \n\n## What has changed?\n\nCurrently, VTEX already manages a store's inventory when order delivery is the seller's responsibility.  \nWith this update, sellers can now allocate their inventory to Mercado Libre's warehouses, taking into account their logistical diversity.  \n\nWith this update, you can:\n\n- Assign each VTEX warehouse to a specific Mercado Libre warehouse based on its location.  \n- Improve logistics efficiency with multiple pickup points for different Mercado Libre shipping models.  \n- Configure shipping capacity and handling time per warehouse.  \n\n## What needs to be done?  \n\nThis feature is only available to sellers using the new offer model and who have enabled multi-origin stock on Mercado Libre. To learn more and complete the configuration, see [Warehouse assignment on Mercado Libre](/en/docs/tutorials/warehouse-assignment-on-mercado-libre) and [Configure warehouse assignment](/en/docs/tutorials/configuring-warehouse-assignment)."}
