Overview

The Fluent OMS Web App's dashboard interface serves as a central hub for monitoring and managing order activity and alerts.
It provides real-time visibility into key operational metrics — such as orders received, escalations, returns, cancellations, and pending actions — enabling quick responses to exceptions.
The dashboard is fully configurable to match business requirements. The numbers displayed represent the total records returned by these queries.

Key points

  • The OMS Dashboard provides real-time visibility into orders and alerts, supporting exception management.
  • Data is sourced from configurable GraphQL queries defined in the manifest.
  • Tiles are grouped into two sections: Orders and Alerts, each showing counts for specific timeframes or statuses.
  • Tile colors (Green, Orange, Red) change based on the Dashboard Threshold component configuration.
  • The maximum count displayed per tile defaults to 50; higher values show as 50+.
  • Clicking a tile applies a preconfigured search filter and navigates to the relevant list view.
  • Counts are based on the timestamp of the last dashboard load or refresh.

No alt provided

Inventory Search Page

The UVOI comes with a new menu section that is available out of the box in the Fluent OMS and Fluent Big Inventory Web Apps. The Inventory Search page displays a filter panel and a list of inventory positions as search results. Each inventory position expands into a detailed list of associated virtual positions, accessible via a dropdown.The top filter panel refines inventory positions based on user-defined criteria, while the inner filter panel focuses on virtual positions. These two filter panels operate independently.

Advanced Filtering Capabilities

No alt providedThe Unified View of Inventory offers powerful and flexible filters to refine search results:
  • Product Catalog Filter automatically applies the default product catalog upon visiting for the first time, as configured via the fc.oms.inventory.search.product.catalogue.default setting. The selected product catalog determines the product name displayed in the search results table. If the product associated with an inventory position belongs to a different product catalog, the product name will not appear. Instead, only the product reference will be shown.
  • Inventory Catalog Filter controls the records displayed by linking to the inventory catalog defined via the fc.oms.inventory.search.inventory.catalogue.default setting. If no default inventory catalog is set, no records will appear.
  • Stock Status Filter filters inventory positions by status as defined in the setting.
  • OnHand Stock Filter allows filtering based on available on-hand stock. Users can set a range or filter inventory with values greater or smaller than a specific threshold.
  • Updated Filter enables filtering by the last update timestamp of inventory positions.
  • Product and Location Filters refine inventory positions by product or location. Clicking the filter opens an advanced form where users can search by name or reference. Matched records appear as selectable chips.
Once filters are applied, the panel updates the results to display only the inventory positions matching the selected criteria.

Inventory Position Details

The Inventory Search page presents a detailed overview of inventory positions, offering important information at a glance. Users can view the inventory catalog name, associated product, and location, along with calculated on-hand quantities and aggregations of inventory quantities. Additionally, it displays the stock status and timestamps for the most recent updates, ensuring complete visibility into inventory changes.No alt providedClicking any quantity cell opens a Type History Drawer, displaying the history of changes for that inventory quantity type.No alt providedEach inventory position contains an inner list of associated virtual positions, enabling a more granular view of inventory filtering by virtual catalog, available stock, and virtual stock statuses.No alt providedFrom an inventory position, users can navigate to detailed inventory views:
  • By Location: Focuses on inventory specific to a chosen location.
  • By Product: Displays inventory details for a specific product, including stock levels across locations and virtual positions.
Both pages carry over filters from the main search but exclude inner filter settings for virtual positions.

Inventory View by Location

No alt providedThe Inventory View by Location page gives a clear and detailed look at a specific location’s inventory. Users can click on a location name from the Inventory Search page to access this view. The location reference will still show if someone doesn’t have the required permissions, but it won’t be clickable, keeping restricted information protected.This page provides the location’s address, working hours, and a full list of inventory positions. It also includes a filter panel—without the location filter—and a detailed inner list of virtual positions linked to each inventory entry. This ensures that all the key inventory details for that location are easy to find.Filters from the Inventory Search page carry over to this detailed view, making it easier to continue working with the same data. However, filters from the inner list do not apply. A breadcrumb link at the top allows users to return to the Inventory Search page, keeping any previously applied filters in place, even when switching between different details pages.

Inventory View by Product

No alt providedThe Inventory by Product page provides a detailed view of inventory information for a specific product. Users can click on the product name from the Inventory Search page to access this page. If the selected product catalog is incorrect or doesn’t include the product, navigation to the product’s details will be restricted, and only the product reference will be displayed without a clickable link.On the UVOI by Product page, users can see key product details, such as its name, status, category, and description, along with an image of the product. The page also features a filter panel—excluding the product filter—and an updated list of inventory positions, complete with their associated virtual positions.Filters applied on the Inventory Search page remain active on this page, helping users maintain their focus on relevant data. Inner list filters, however, do not carry over. A breadcrumb navigation link allows users to return to the Inventory Search page with their original filters preserved, even when moving between multiple details pages.

Optimizing Stock, Enhancing Experiences

By combining advanced filtering capabilities, real-time updates, and intuitive navigation, UVOI ensures that users—from retail managers to eCommerce teams—can easily make data-driven decisions.Whether you're monitoring stock by location or tracking inventory across sales channels, UVOI empowers businesses to maintain optimal stock levels, reduce inefficiencies, and enhance the customer experience.
