New Features ✨

• Added endpoints to:
  • Create / update SKUL (item) alternatives
  • Create / update work order components
  • Delete demand events
• Extended data attributes configured outbound may now also be used as query parameters for endpoints where that extended data is available for egress

Enhancements 🔨

• Inventory policy webhooks introduced in the prior release were improved to cover additional scenarios (however, nightly processes are not yet covered - expected to be completed in the next release)
• For both supply and demand transaction endpoints, payloads were adjusted to have more header level data also available at the line level (overrides)
• Extended data support was added for vendor alternatives
• We optimized inbound endpoints to allow for more efficient processing of data as it gets loaded in to GAINS
• In cases where multiple records were posted to the API for ingress and part of the payload was malformed, we were previously accepting and loading partial payloads and ignoring the rest that was malformed. This has been changed now such that the entire payload will be rejected outright if any portion of it was malformed
• Improved messaging for rejected records when rejections were caused by specific parts of supply transactions missing (for ex. line items)
• We added support for extended data that was previously not covered - with PO/TO/WO endpoints specifically at the header level
• PO/TO/WO payloads had some standard attributes added at the line level - including order type, additional quantity and date attributes
• Inventory policy and service level endpoints now have an attribute AvgLTTotalDemand

Bug Fixes 🐜

• We have resolved an issue that was sometimes leading to work orders being mis-categorized as purchase orders
• Cleaned up some naming inconsistencies in inventory policy and service level endpoints
• Across the API, we had some attributes producing false as a value where the value should have been null. This has been corrected

New Features ✨

• Extended data flexibility enhanced to allow for override attributes to be provided at both header and line level
• The Ping endpoint now contains an additional attribute that shows whether inbound API's are enabled for your environment
• A number of additional line level attributes were added to PO, TOand WO endpoints

Bug Fixes 🐜

• Supply and demand transaction endpoints wrongly tagged some attributes as being required
• Resolved a bug that very rarely led to empty webhook payloads
• Some demand transaction attributes had a prohibitive character limit that has been lifted
