Create_WCS_ExpectedInventoryRecord message

The Create_WCS_ExpectedInventoryRecord message is an inbound message that contains information for creating an expected inventory record in the WebSphere Commerce database. A fulfillment center application generates this request and sends it to the WebSphere Commerce inbound message queue, where the WebSphere Commerce system receives it. After WebSphere Commerce processes the message, the ExpectedInventoryRecordCreate command is invoked. The command creates a record in the RA table and one RADETAIL record for each RADETAIL component in the message.

Note: If the inbound message does not contain a valid StoreID or a valid ExpectedDate, the GenericApplicationError viewname is used for error message composition and the ExpectedInventoryRecordCreate command is not invoked. The response message is generated by GenericApplicationErrorXML.jsp.

The Create_WCS_ExpectedInventoryRecord message uses the XML message format and follows Create_WCS_ExpectedInventoryRecord_10.dtd.

The following table describes the format of the Create_WCS_ExpectedInventoryRecord message. For a description of the database column, follow the link to its associated table.
