Clarification:

•	TradeGecko appears in both Inventory Management and Supply Chain Management, which makes sense since it can integrate with both functions.
•	Middleware solutions (like Zapier or Integromat) were mentioned for bridging systems that may not have direct integrations.
•	Data flow considerations: It was noted to ensure seamless integration and minimise manual data entry, which would apply to all these systems.
