Inventory Update (X12)

Inventory updates allow suppliers to communicate with their remote or third-party warehouses, 3PLs, or CMOs about changes to the available inventory for specific products. Communicating inventory quantity or status updates allows companies to maintain accurate inventory records, which ensures compliance with government regulations, optimizes warehouse operations, reduces inefficiencies, and prevents stockouts or overstocks. Companies are also able to make informed decisions regarding procurement, production, and inventory management strategies.

Suppliers use inventory updates to communicate information about changes in inventory quantity or status with their remote or third-party warehouses or CMOs.
