Create a stock adjustment reason

Open .md

POST/v1/api/store/{team_slug}/setting/adjustment_reason

v1Operation ID v1_public_adjustment_reason_store

Adds a reason of your own and returns it. It is on unless you send enable: false.

Reasons offered when someone adjusts stock by hand, such as Damaged or Stocktake. A stock adjustment stores the reason as text, so renaming or deleting a reason doesn't change past adjustments. Every team starts with YoPrint's built-in reasons (system: true): New Products, Returned, Production of Goods, Damaged, Shrinkage, Promotion and Stocktake.

Needs the Manage Settings permission.

Errors

  • 401The API key is missing or wrong (unauthenticated).

    When
    The API key is missing or wrong.
    Fix
    Send your personal API key as Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY.
  • 403You are not allowed to do this. api_access_not_in_plan: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}. Other refusals use the error envelope, with unauthorized or user_is_not_authorized.

    When
    Your permission group lacks Manage Settings. This 403 has a short body, {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}, without success or error.
    Fix
    Ask the team owner to give your permission group Manage Settings.
  • 404Not found. page_not_found: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's. code: null, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.

  • 422The request was refused and changed nothing. validation_failed lists what to fix in error.fields; other codes name a business rule, explained in error.message. A few checks answer with only {"message": "..."}. An operation that calls another service (a payment provider, a carrier, an accounting app) can answer connect_timeout ("Please retry again") when that service does not answer in time: the change may or may not have happened there, so read the record back before you retry.

    When
    reason is missing. error.code is validation_failed, and error.fields names each field with its messages.
    Fix
    Fix the fields listed in error.fields and send the request again.
