Audit APIs

GreyMatter allows performing inventory audits in which manual count of selected inventory can be performed.

Audits can be created either from the Manager Dashboard or via API. But, they can be started only from the Manager Dashboard.

Audit Object

Audits can be of two types: location audit or SKU audit:

  • In a location audit, a list of slots or MSUs are specified which have to be audited, and all inventory present in those slots are audited.
  • In an SKU audit, product parameters are given, and all products matching those parameters are audited. All slots which have those products are brought to the audit station for this purpose.
audit_param_type

Can be either location or sku.

audit_param_value
locations_list

In case of a location audit

A list of strings denoting locations (either slot ids or MSU ids)

Example

{
    "locations_list": [
        "014",
        "039",
        "001",
        "039.1.E.02",
        "014.1.E.05"
    ]
}
attributes_list

In case of SKU audit

A list of SKU selector objects. Each object has two properties: sku and attributes_sets.

Example

{
    "attributes_list": [{
        "attributes_sets": [{
            "product_color": [
                "Green"
            ]
        }],
        "sku": "3001"
    }]
}

Creating an Audit

Audit Notifications

All Audit notifications follow the generic notification format (see Event Notifications), and contain the relevant payload in the notification_data attribute.

Audit notifications are generated for most Audit Lifecycle events.
