Use the Inventory API to retrieve the inventory levels of requested products, refresh and adjust current
stock levels at fulfillment locations, and tag segmented inventory for different channels. When using tags for inventory segmentation, inventory records are separated into categories to identify
which portions of its
total quantity are intended for different channels, customer groups, fulfillment methods, or other
needs.
This allows for setting a percentage of the quantity that would be available for each category and
setting discrete units at the location level as available for each category. For example, tags could
define how much of each
inventory record is set aside for a certain sales channel: the Kibo storefront, Walmart, or Amazon. The
percentages of the
inventory allotted for each channel would add up to 100% - the Kibo storefront could have 80% of the
inventory, Amazon 10%, and Walmart 10%.
