warehouses or not warehouses?

[Beeta]

I want to load different inventory from different suppliers... but sometimes they have products with the same EAN (but with different references). At the same time one of the suppliers didn't give availability information... if the product is present on the CSV it means that is available but I don't know how many units, if the product row disappears from the next CSV it means that is not available anymore.

I don't have used "warehouse" features until now, but I think that maybe is what I need.

Is it possible to use it in a way that the customer knows nothing about and the merchant will have warehouse stats available only on the backend?

Is warehouse feature really what I need?
