A StockLocation represents a physical location where stock is held. For example, a warehouse or a shop.

When the stock of a [ProductVariant](/current/core/reference/typescript-api/entities/product-variant#productvariant) is adjusted, the adjustment is applied to a specific StockLocation,
and the stockOnHand of that ProductVariant is updated accordingly. When there are multiple StockLocations
configured, the [StockLocationStrategy](/current/core/reference/typescript-api/products-stock/stock-location-strategy#stocklocationstrategy) is used to determine which StockLocation should be used for
a given operation.
