Product activities APIs

The product activities report is routinely distributed to trading partners, suppliers, or upstream supply chain partners. The product activities report is issued either at set intervals or in response to significant deviations in inventory levels outside the normal schedule. The report's data enables trading partners to assess inventory levels and plan for replenishment needs accurately. By analyzing product activities data, trading partners can forecast necessary shipping quantities or propose optimal replenishment quantities for distribution centers, warehouses, or retail locations.

Recipients of this transaction set are responsible for maintaining inventory and product movement records specific to each trading partner. This record-keeping process facilitates informed replenishment calculations, leveraging data provided by distributors, warehouses, or retailers. Such information allows trading partners to efficiently manage stock levels and fulfill demand while avoiding stock outs or overstock situations.

A product activities report primarily tracks two factors: current inventory levels and product sales data (often from Point of Sale systems).
