Vendor Inventory Report

DataChannel’s Vendor Inventory Report by date pipeline can be used to request and retrieve inventory and operational health metrics such as sellable on hand units and vendor confirmation rate. Data is reported at the aggregate level across a vendor’s catalog of items and at the ASIN level across DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, and YEAR reporting periods.

Scheduling specifies the frequency with which data will get updated in the data warehouse. You can choose between Manual Run, Normal Scheduling or Advance Scheduling.

Manual Run: If scheduling is not required, you can use the toggle to run the pipeline manually.
Normal Scheduling: Use the dropdown to select an interval-based hourly, monthly, weekly, or daily frequency.
Advance Scheduling: Set schedules fine-grained at the level of Months, Days, Hours, and Minutes.

Detailed explanation on scheduling of pipelines can be found here

Dataset & Name

Dataset Name: Key in the Dataset Name(also serves as the table name in your data warehouse).Keep in mind, that the name should be unique across the account and the data source. Special characters (except underscore _) and blank spaces are not allowed. It is best to follow a consistent naming scheme for future search to locate the tables.
Dataset Description: Enter a short description (optional) describing the dataset being fetched by this particular pipeline.
Notifications: Choose the events for which you’d like to be notified: whether "ERROR ONLY" or "ERROR AND SUCCESS".

Once you have finished click on Finish to save it. Read more about naming and saving your pipelines including the option to save them as templates here
