Can I check the stock level of a specific item?

Yes! Use the `get_item` tool with the Item ID. Your agent will fetch the detailed information, including the current total quantity in stock.

How do I list my storage locations?

Simply ask the agent to `list_locations`. It will retrieve the directory of all active warehouses and zones.

Does the integration allow registering a new stock delivery?

Yes. Use the `create_transaction` tool with type 'IN' to log incoming stock, specifying the items and quantities.
