Adjust inventory counters
With this endpoint, you can modify inventory counters (also known as inventory positions) to maintain accurate inventory records. These counters are adjusted when new inventory is received or when an item is shipped. If the inventory does not exist, an error message will be displayed. An inventory can have multiple counters, and all counters will be updated when this endpoint is used.
