Introduction (Spec)

This documentation describes the high-level architecture of the enfore Inventory-API.

The enfore Inventory-API is provided by the enfore platform to be convenient to use for inventory-related use cases in the "Retail" vertical, for example when integrating with an external system such as SAP or Dynamics.

The API consists of multiple modules that allow

• notification about, querying and creation of stock count changes (e.g., items removed from stock due to a sale)
• notification about, querying and creation/update of inventory shipments (e.g., moving items from storage A to storage B)
• notification about, querying and creation/update of goods-in/out (e.g., receiving items from external to storage/moving items from storage to external)

The exact set of modules and their capabilities will evolve over time, the initial API version will only support a very limited set of use cases.
