Hi All,

Can anyone please suggest how  can we differentiate between Check Product Stock resource and Query Product Stock resource based on real business usecases. 

Thanks.

Hi Gargi

As far as I understand it, the Check Product Stock (renaming to Check Stock) task resource is used to check whether the stock item is available in particular location or sales channel, e.g. a store or for online orders.  Alternative items, e.g. different colour, may be returned if the item is out-of-stock.

For the Query Product Stock (renaming to Query Stock) task resource, I believe the intention is to support many different use cases, returning a list of stock levels at different locations and/or stock items depending on specific search criteria.  For example, this could be used on a mobile app to display which models for a specific brand are currently in stock.

This is just a very basic example, but hope it helps.
