Check Boxhero stock against receiving documents
Get a quick stock check when a receiving document is ready, without switching between the document and inventory tools.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Item
Retrieve an item’s details, including its attributes, price and stock quantities.
Why this helps
Receiving details can sit in a generated document while someone separately checks Boxhero for the current item quantity.
- Compare a document's barcode and stated quantity with the current Boxhero item record.
- Surface item details and quantities in a run report.
- Keep the inventory decision close to the document that prompted it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Boxhero in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to read the receiving document details in the webhook request, look up the barcode in Boxhero, and report the current item quantity beside the stated quantity.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and configure ActiveMerge or its connected middleware to send the document details to the Notis webhook when the document is ready.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real receiving document that includes a barcode and quantity.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow change Boxhero inventory?
No. It retrieves the item record and reports the comparison. The available Boxhero action is Get Item, which does not update inventory.
What should the webhook request include?
Include the barcode and the quantity stated in the receiving document. Notis needs those values to compare the document with the Boxhero item record.
