Inventory Syncing
Sync Inventory
If you would like Whitebox to send inventory reports to Order Desk, enable this setting. If enabled, your stock counts will be pulled into Order Desk on the interval selected in the next setting.
Sync Update Interval
If Sync Inventory is enabled, select the interval you would like Order Desk to pull in inventory updates from Whitebox.
Inventory Location Name
By default, inventory updates will add Whitebox as the location name on each item updated. If you would like to override this to use a different name, add that here.
