Overview

The Fluent Big Inventory Web App is pre-configured with standard functions that provide the interface for managing products, inventory, feeds, and sources and serve as a starting point for your projects.

The default UX templates are hosted on the platform, so you don't have to create the manifest settings unless you need to customize the existing baseline configuration.

Key points

The Fluent Big Inventory Web App comes with pre-configured standard functions, offering a user-friendly interface for effective management of products, inventory, feeds, and sources.
Default UX templates are readily available on the platform, eliminating the need to create manifest settings unless customization of the existing baseline configuration is required, streamlining the setup process for a seamless user experience.

Technical Information and Dependencies

The Fluent Big Inventory Web App is based on the inventory module. The inventory module needs to have all required dependencies.

Browser and Device Support

The fluent Big Inventory Web App is built using our tested OMX Design System, which is based on Material Design. It's highly customizable, offering flexibility to meet Customers' unique needs. The modern, user-friendly interface works smoothly on desktops, tablets, and mobile screens.

The following Browsers have been tested:

Safari, Chrome, Firefox

Language Support

Default Language Pack:

Additional Language Packs available:

For more information on Supported Languages, see Localization.

The Fluent Big Inventory Web App is available on the following URL:

`https://<ACCOUNT_ID>.<ENVIRONMENT>.apps.fluentcommerce.com/inventory`

You can enter your retailer username and password.

Additional Information

You must set up at least one user to access the Fluent Big Inventory Web App.
The user must have `METRICS_VIEW` permission to see data on the Sources and Feeds dashboards.
You can customize the UI according to your business requirements using the OMX UX framework.
You can add and configure workflows to cover your business needs.

You must have an existing Fluent Commerce Account with at least one Retailer set up to be able to configure the Fluent Big Inventory Web App.

Should you wish to tailor the Fluent Big Inventory Web App for customer-specific needs, you should override the default Fluent Big Inventory Web App template and add your manifest to the Account Settings.

Only override what you need to

It is highly recommended that you only override the fragment(s) you need to customise. This way, your Fluent Big Inventory Web App will still inherit bug fixes and feature enhancements from the baseline Fluent Big Inventory Web App for the fragments not customised.
