Frequently Asked Questions

How does the system handle inventory discrepancies or conflicts?

The agent is configured with predefined conflict resolution strategies (e.g., 'last-write-wins', 'prioritize source X') and can be set up to alert administrators for manual review in complex or unresolved discrepancy scenarios.

What happens if one of my connected platforms goes offline or experiences an API outage?

The system includes robust error handling with retry mechanisms and configurable alerts. It will attempt to resynchronize once the platform is back online and can also be configured to pause updates to the affected platform to prevent further issues.
