Overview
Conditionally send an event (or multiple events) to the Virtual Catalog(s) specified by their References, which passed the "Network-Match-Check".
A Virtual Catalog passes the "Network-Match-Check" when its Network(s) finds a match with a given Inventory Position Location Network(s).

The Inventory Reference Module is the foundation for inventory related implementations. It provides reference Workflows for inventory ingestion and processing. Extensible by design, use this Module as a base to build a solution to the needs of your customers.
The Inventory Module includes the following areas:
- Product Catalogue workflow
- Inventory Catalogue workflow
- Control Group workflow
- Virtual Catalogue workflow
UI Description
Forward the event with name {eventName} to the virtual catalogues with refs {virtualCatalogueRefs} if the location's network ref is listed in the virtual catalogue's networkIds.
Accepts
- INVENTORY_POSITION
Actions
- This Rule conditionally produces a SendEventAction
Rule parameters

7}Detailed Technical Description
This Rule conditionally produces a SendEventAction. The Rule condition is defined by the "Network-Match-Check", including the following steps:
- The Rule will get the Inventory Position.
 It stops the execution when the Inventory Position can not be found.
- The list of Networks (by `id`) assigned to the loaded Inventory Position Location will be retrieved.
- The Rule then gets the Virtual Catalogs specified in the `virtualCatalogueRefs`, including their lists of associated Networks (stored in the`networkIds`field).
- The Networks lists mentioned (associated with the Location (point 2) and the Virtual Catalogs (point 3)) will be compared. The Rule condition is met when any match case occurs.
- Finally, the event `{eventName}`will be sent to all the Virtual Catalogs passed the "Network-Match-Check".
The generated event contains the following event attributes:
