Occurrence: Always

The name of the inventory location. This name should be a human-friendly name as it will be displayed in In-Store Pickup and Click and Collect listings. For store inventory locations, this field is not required for the createInventoryLocation call, but a store inventory location must have a defined name value before an In-Store Pickup and Click and Collect enabled offer is published. So, if the seller omits this field in the createInventoryLocation call, it will have to be added later through a updateInventoryLocation call.
