With all of the products available for web integration, none will work with HQ. I have 2 stores and HQ; ideally I would like the website to pull from inventory at both stores--not just one. Has anyone accomplished this? Any creative ideas or suggestions? Thanks.

Whilst its not HQ friendly at the moment, because of the way its architected it would be simple to show a combined inventory total on the web. e.g. if 'store 1' has 8 footballs and 'store 2' has 1 football the website would show 9. The link we've created also has full support for matrix items, which some links don't (see size/colour variations on

Our biggest change would be brokering out the resultant orders to the weborder functionality in StoreOps. This might not be an issue as you don't mention sales order processing in your original post. I can see a way to make this work, but it would require further development (and thus cost).
Is this the sort of solution you are looking for?
Were currently working with EVT Solutions to provide exactly this for one of our clients. It's not really supported in in EVT's current version, so we are 'faking it' by using some SQL scripts to make the warehouse store display a virtual inventory that aggregates the brick & mortar inventories. EVT is 2-3 months from completing upgrades that will interface directly with HQ to provide this functionality directly.
Also, Nitrosell is expanding their offering to include HQ support, but I'm not sure if they are going to have multiple inventories feed a single website. I think they are going the other way and allowing a single store or HQ to feed multiple websites.
