Mapping Shopify Multilocation Inventory in NetSuite Connector

The Shopify connector in NetSuite enables businesses to efficiently manage inventory across multiple locations. Mapping multilocation inventory is crucial for ensuring that stock levels are accurately reflected in both Shopify and NetSuite. This process allows users to designate specific Shopify locations to sync with their corresponding NetSuite entities.
