The Item Management tab in TrueCommerce Home allows vendors to view and manage the inventory items that have been uploaded. From here, vendors can search for items, update quantities and availability dates, and generate updated inventory feeds.
In this article, you will learn more about how Item Management works and how to make inventory updates correctly.
How to access the Item Management tab
Login to TrueCommerce Home.
Select the Retailer Portal menu.
The Items Uploads tab is displayed by default.
Switch to the Item Management tab.
How does Item Management work?
Viewing
Once an inventory feed has been uploaded, vendors can access Inventory Management to view:
The most recent inventory feed uploaded
Inventory data filtered by retailer
Item-level details for uploaded products
Searching
Vendors can filter inventory by selecting a specific retailer to view only the relevant items.
The result includes the most current occurrences or inventory feeds which have been uploaded.
Item Management allows vendors to search by specific item number.
If an item exists in the most recent inventory feed, the system displays the latest record.
If an item was not included in the most recent upload, the system references the last occurrence of that item from a previous inventory feed and displays the associated date.
This ensures vendors always see the most recent known data for each item.
Editing and Updating
From Item Management, vendors can:
Edit details of an item directly in the table
Add new inventory items
Delete selected items
Update quantities and availability dates
After making any changes, vendors must click Save Changes. Saving triggers the system to compile and generate an updated 846 Inventory Feed, which will be sent to the retailer on the next scheduled run.
Updating Multiple Items at Once
Vendors can update multiple items by selecting the checkbox at the top of the page. This action applies only to items displayed on the current page.
To ensure all items are updated:
Adjust the page size to include all relevant items.
Apply the updates.
Click Save Changes to generate the updated inventory feed.
Inventory Update Rules and Best Practices
When managing inventory, vendors should follow standard inventory rules:
Available items must have:
Quantity greater than 0
Current availability date
Backordered or discontinued items should have:
Quantity set to 0
A future availability date indicating when the item is expected to be available again
Failure to follow these rules may result in sending conflicting/mixed inventory information to the retailer.
In short
The Item Management tab in TrueCommerce Home for Vendors allows users to view, search, and manage inventory items that have been uploaded for retailers. Vendors can filter inventory by retailer, search for specific item numbers, and update item details such as quantities and availability dates.
Any changes made to this tab must be saved in order for an updated 846 inventory feed to be generated and sent to the retailer on the next scheduled run. When updating inventory, vendors should follow standard inventory rules to ensure accurate and consistent information is communicated.
