Doc Summary 
Swedish Business Central view name: Web Connect Webblagersaldo
Overview #
Web Connect Item Inventory is the view where all calculated inventory data is collected before being sent to external systems.
The values shown in this view are not entered manually.
They are calculated based on the setup in Web Connect Destinations and underlying Web Connect Dynamic Flow Fields.
This view acts as the inventory staging layer between:
- Microsoft Business Central inventory data
- Web Connect Outgoing Data
- External systems (e-commerce, WMS, POS, etc.)
Purpose of Web Connect Item Inventory #
This view is used to:
- Review calculated web inventory per item
- Verify next available date calculations
- Manually trigger recalculations
- Control forced exports
- Monitor when and why inventory updates are triggered
It does not control:
- Inventory logic
- When data is sent
- Mapping rules
Those are configured in:
How inventory values are calculated #
Inventory values shown here are calculated using:
- Dynamic FlowFields defined in Web Connect Destinations
- Business Central standard inventory data (Item Ledger Entries, Sales Lines, Transfer Lines, etc.)
Typical logic includes:
- Inventory
- Minus quantities on Sales Orders
- Minus quantities on Transfer Orders
Optional logic includes:
- Next Available Date
- BOM-based availability
- Planning data by event
