What your agents can do in Fishbowl

Read 10

Look things up. Nothing changes.

  • Run a SQL query

    Runs a read-only SELECT against the Fishbowl database, the way the Data module's queries do, like SELECT id, num, statusId, customerId, dateIssued FROM so WHERE statusId = 20 (open sales orders).

  • Find parts

    Finds parts by number, description, UPC, type (Inventory, Service, Labor, Overhead, Non-Inventory, Internal Use, Capital Equipment, Shipping), ABC code, vendor, or product number.

  • Check inventory

    Reads on-hand inventory per part, by part number or description, a location or location group, or ABC code; parts with nothing on hand are left out unless asked.

  • Get a product's best price

    Works out a product's best unit price for a customer, quantity and date under the pricing rules, optionally listing the rules that applied.

  • Find purchase orders

    Finds purchase orders by number, status (All, All Open, Bid Request, Pending Approval, Issued, Picking, Partial, Picked, Shipped, Fulfilled, Closed Short, Void, Historical), vendor, part.

  • Read a purchase order

    Reads one purchase order by its ID.

  • Find manufacture orders

    Finds manufacture orders by number, status (All, All Open, Entered, Issued, Partial, Fulfilled, Closed Short, Void), BOM number, linked sales order number, location group or a scheduled-date range.

  • Read a manufacture order

    Reads one manufacture order by its ID.

  • Find vendors

    Finds vendors by name, account number, city, state or country, active only by default.

  • List location groups

    Lists location groups (sites or warehouses), by name, active only by default.

Write 2

Create, change or send.

  • Add a memo

    Adds a memo (a dated note signed by the API user) to a purchase order or a manufacture order by its ID, like "Vendor confirmed ship date Nov 3".

  • Import records

    Runs one of Fishbowl's CSV imports with the rows as JSON.

A person can approve first

Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything.
