Is "Units expected" and "Units located" available in the API for inbound shipments?

[johnkw]

Where is "Units expected" and "Units located" for inbound shipments in the RECEIVING status?

Those field are visible on the https://sellercentral.amazon.com/fba/inbound-shipment/summary/FBAxxxxxxxxx/contents page. However, searching the API documentation, I see nothing on those terms.

See also bug #379 which is a similar sort of field missing from the https://developer-docs.amazon.com/sp-api/docs/fulfillment-inbound-api-v0-reference docs.

It's unclear whether this is intentionally not provided, in which case this is a "Feature request", or if it's just badly documented, in which case it's a "Bug report" or "Documentation issue or request".

See also bug 2880 which was confusingly closed with "thanks", but not an actual answer as to whether it's missing from the API, or just missing from the documentation.

Hi @johnkw did you find any answer for this ? i am also facing same issue ?

[johnkw]

No answer. No response, except for the highly mysterious comment from @sungolivia in 2880.

According to Seller Support, this is missing from the Fulfillment Inbound API.

This is a very old issue that is probably not getting as much attention as it deserves. We encourage you to check if this is still an issue after the latest release and if you find that this is still a problem, please feel free to open a new issue and make a reference to this one.

Please turn this horrible bot off and only close the github tickets as the actual issues are fixed. @adrian-amz @amazon-auto @chapmanjw @amvreddy-amazon @jenilew @parvathm

This appears to be missing from the new API as well.

I just found what is apparently a complicated and well-hidden solution to this. The GET_LEDGER_DETAIL_VIEW_DATA has a column Event Type which can be Receipts, which then uses the Reference ID column as the name of the inbound shipment that this inventory was checked in from.

If this is the way to get check-in information, it should be documented on the inbound shipment pages.

See bug #2525 and bug #378 regarding how ridiculously undocumented all of this is. (Note to self: this bug 428 was previously bug 2903 in the prior github repo.)
