Abstract
This disclosure describes, in part, systems for enabling facilities to customize the layouts of items located within the facilities. For instance, an entity may be associated with multiple facilities. The facilities may be located at various geographic locations, include various retail layouts/sizes, sell various items, and/or the like. As such, it may be difficult to generate planograms that can be used by more than one of the facilities. Therefore, for different facilities, the entity may determine (1) locations of inventory locations within the facilities, (2) categories of items to include at the inventory locations, (3) identifiers of items associated with the categories, (4) quantities of items to include at the inventory locations, and/or the like. The facilities can then use these determinations to determine the actual items, as well as the locations for the actual items, at the inventory locations.
