Inventory outcomes

Where your data goes

These are the specific results you get when you ask your agent to act on SkuVault.

DATA

Lot visibility

Your AI pulls specific lot records and quantities. You get the exact numbers needed for tracking and auditing.

CONTROL

Inventory holds

The AI places holds on specific lots to prevent shipping errors. This keeps problematic stock out of active orders.

LOGISTICS

Location tracking

You can see exactly where specific lots are sitting in your warehouse. It maps lot data to specific storage locations.

HUMAN

Physical management

The AI cannot move physical boxes or change warehouse layouts. You still handle the actual movement of goods.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask about lots.

Your agent translates your natural language requests into direct SkuVault actions.

  1. Find lots

    The AI identifies the specific lot records you need based on your description.

    get_lots

  2. Check location stock

    It looks up how much inventory from a specific lot is sitting in a designated area.

    get_lot_inventory_by_location

  3. Add new lots

    When you receive new stock, the AI can add a new lot record to the system.

    create_lot

  4. Apply holds

    The AI places a hold on a lot to stop it from being picked or shipped.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete lot records?

    No. The AI can create and retrieve lot data, but it does not have the capability to delete records.

  • 02

    Can I use this to change item prices?

    No. This connector is strictly for lot and inventory management; it cannot modify pricing or product descriptions.

  • 03

    Does the AI know which bin a lot is in?

    Yes, it can check location-specific details to tell you where a lot is stored.

  • 04

    Can the AI physically move stock between bins?

    No. The AI only manages the digital records and holds. Physical movement must be done by your warehouse staff.

  • 05

    Can I place a hold on a single SKU instead of a lot?

    No. The available tools are designed to manage inventory at the lot level.
