B Appendix - Outbound and Inbound Interfaces
Outbound from WMS Cloud
The following lists all the outbound interfaces from WMS Cloud available in USM, for integration into Merchandising or SIOCS, along with their interface names, template files, service definition files, orchestration files, supported message types, and payloads.
Note:
These interfaces have the exact same Failure and Response templates. Namely:
-
LogFireToRib_DefaultAllAction_ResponseDataMapping.template
-
LogFireToRib_DefaultAllAction_FailureResponseDataMapping.template
You will be able to see the details available in these templates in the USM screens to help with resolving any issues in the integration. See also the Integration Errors.
ASN Outbound
This integration will be used for shipments from the warehouse to a store or to another warehouse. It also will be used for customer orders that are shipped to the customer directly.
Inventory Adjustments
Any inventory adjustments that will increment or decrement inventory in the warehouse will be sent via this integration point. This includes removing inventory from stock completely or moving it to and from an available status. See "Appendix - Activity Codes" for more information about mapping inventory adjustments.
Return to Vendor Shipments
This integration will be used when shipping inventory back to a supplier from the warehouse. RTV shipments support returns from both available and unavailable inventory buckets. When shipping out an RTV order from a non-sellable bucket, the inventory disposition codes in the shipment will be based on lock codes in WMS.
Receiving
This integration will be used for receipts of purchase orders, transfers, or allocations into the warehouse. Both container level and detailed receipts will flow through this message to update Merchandising.
Stock Order Status
This integration will be used to communicate updates for stock orders - which can be either a transfer or allocation. Status updates are based on certain activity codes in the Inventory History table in WMS Cloud. See "Appendix - Activity Codes" for more details.
Inbound to WMS Cloud
The following lists the inbound interfaces to interfaces used for integration into WMS Cloud from Merchandising or SIOCS, along with their interface names, template files, service definition files, orchestration files, supported message types, and payload name. Due to the manner in which WMS Cloud consumes data for the following interface points, a full payload is used for sending updates from Merchandising, rather than just the data that has changed: items, purchase orders, stock orders, vendors, and RTV requests, using the "FullRep" message type. In the case of purchase orders, any order line that has already been over-received is not published as a part of this.
The following list of Interfaces have the exact same Failure and Response templates.

Order
This interface is used to send new and updated purchase orders from Merchandising to WMS Cloud. In case an order is being
republished using the POFulRep
message based on certain modifications, the order lines that have already
been over-received prior to this will not be published again by Merchandising. Only approved orders with a warehouse as one
of the destination locations will be sent to WMS Cloud. For more details about PO mapping rules, see the Purchase Orders section.

Stock Order
Stock orders can be either transfers or allocations, including customer order related transfers. These orders are sent from Merchandising to WMS Cloud when the warehouse is either the shipping location or the receiving location on the stock order. Only approved stock orders will be integrated.

RTV Requests
This integration will send return to vendor transactions initiated in Merchandising that are requested to be shipped from a warehouse. Merchandising sends the inventory disposition code in the RTV request if the inventory to be returned is from an unavailable bucket. If the RTV line item is to be returned from the multiple inventory status codes, then Merchandising sends these codes in the form of a comma-separated list.
