Inventory Process
The following diagram depicts the high-level Inventory Process:
The Inventory Process is a collection of configurable settings used by the ServiceMax inventory engine in the specific context of an inventory-related transaction such as Stock Transfer, RMA, or Parts Order. Examples of inventory processes are Posting Stock Transfer to Inventory and Processing Receipts in an RMA. Inventory processes can be enabled on standard ServiceMax objects as well as custom objects. When users run an inventory process, product stock will be updated depending on how the process is configured.
See Sample Inventory Processes for examples of creating and deploying custom inventory processes.
