When creating a new shipment for an existing order, you can add inventory tags to the items in the new shipment. Likewise, you can set or update inventory tags on items in subscriptions. The process for adding and updating tags in these cases is the same as shown above for new orders, and follows the same validation. Note that if any tags already exist on a subscription, then those will be passed to the items in Order All Items Now, Order Partial Items Now, or Next Order Only mode.

​
Tags with Reserve Inventory

Whenever inventory tags are set or updated on an item in a Pending order, cart, or checkout that includes reserve inventory, then the entire line item and quantity combination will be reevaluated and allocated or deallocated appropriately.  You can also use the Update Reservation Item API to manually update a specific reserved item and its fulfillment location code, fulfillment type and inventory tags. For STH shipments without a location code: 
  • If any of these fields are updated, then new suggestions will be fetched from Order Routing. Any errors will block the new values from being updated on the item.
  • If the call succeeds, the existing inventory will be deallocated and reallocated for the complete quantity.
For STH shipments with a location code:
  • If any of these fields are updated, the existing inventory will be deallocated.
  • A new inventory call will be made to allocate the complete quantity with the updated fields.
For BOPIS, Delivery, and Curbside shipments without Transfers enabled:
  • If any of these fields are updated, an inventory check will be done.
  • If no inventory is available at the pickup location, the values will not be updated on the item.
  • If inventory is available, then the complete quantity will be deallocated and reallocated.
For BOPIS, Delivery, and Curbside shipments with Transfers enabled:
  • If any of these fields are updated, an inventory check will be done.
  • If there is no inventory for the entire quantity, new Order Routing suggestions will be retrieved and the existing quantity will be deallocated. It will be reallocated with the complete quantity.
  • If partial inventory is unavailable at a pickup location, order routing will be called for partial quantity and the remaining quantity will be deallocated and reallocated.
  • If no inventory/partial inventory and no valid routing suggestions, the new values will not be updated on the items.
  • If there is full inventory, then the complete quantity will be deallocated and reallocated.
For example, you might update an inventory tag for a BOPIS order item with 5 quantity. If all 5 are available at the pickup location, then the allocation will be done and the item will remain in the cart. If 3 are available at the pickup location, then 2 will be sent to Order Routing to create transfers. If 0 are available at the pickup location, then 5 will be sent to Order Routing to create transfers. If a transfer cannot be created for either case (such as if there is no other quantity in stock anywhere else), the item will not be updated and the user will be informed that the product is out of stock.
