Automated Inventory Sync
Some select fulfillment providers* have the ability to sync the inventory count found at fulfillment with the inventory count for your SKUs within Vin65. The inventory sync will run once a day (WineDirect @ 7AM PST and Copper Peak Logiostics @ 10PM PST) and will compare inventory counts in Vin65 with those at fulfillment and make updates to match.
*WineDirect Fulfillment & Copper Peak Logistics are currently the only integrated fulfillment services using the inventory sync tool. If you wish to have this feature turned on, please contact support@vin65.com.
Other sync options maybe available through your fulfillment provider and their webservices however you will want to reach out to your fulfillment provider for more details. For information on creating webservice accounts see the Webservice Accounts Documentation.
