Noting the ItemID

Note your inventory items’ Item ID for later. You can find this in the inventory item’s Item Detail page, as well as in the URL:

For example, [CLIENTID].corpadmin.directscale.com/Corporate/Inventory/ItemDetail?iid=372

The Item ID is necessary because it’s how you’ll reference the Database inventory item, so take note of it later in the guide.

Note: The ItemID is also the recordnumber in the INV_Inventory table.
