- Inventory Advice Dataset Script Id ID of the dataset to use for the 846 if using a dataset.
- Inventory Advice Search Select the saved search to use for the 846 if using a saved search

Locations For Customer Mapping
Sending the 846
The Orderful Inventory Advice Handler is not scheduled by default. During testing, you can simply use a Save and Execute on the script deployment to run the job. The 846 will generate an Orderful Transaction record for any customer configured with the 846 transaction type and settings.
If you do not see the 846 Orderful Transaction record check the script execution logs to troubleshoot.
Once testing is complete, you may set the deployment on a schedule to run automatically.
