Capabilities

Capabilities are a core concept in the Jungle System which can be applied to objects such as Locations and Products.

They have special meaning and allow you to configure your organisation in flexible ways.

We go over some of the main use cases below.

Locations

Locations can be tagged with capabilities such as:

• ship: allows for product to be shipped from the location using the SHIP method on orderConsumeWithAllocations
• store: allows for product to be stored at the location
• collect: enabled click and collect at a location for usage with the PICKUP method on orderConsumeWithAllocations
• inventory-quarantine: stock held at the location stays on hand but is excluded from available inventory and is never assigned to orders. See Quarantine Locations.
• damaged: damaged stock can be stored at the location. Used to suggest where to put away items received in a damaged condition; it does not affect available inventory. Use inventory-quarantine to remove stock from sale.

Other Capabilities

There exists an exhaustive list of capabilities which can be viewed by queries the API. In a large warehouse setup a Jungle Operational Specialist will typically configure these for you according to your warehouse needs and Jungle best practice.
