Inventory Management in Sandbox environment.

sego — Tue, 17 Sep 2019 14:01:00 GMT

Hey guys,

We are testing Square and some of the accompanying APIs. We need to test to ensure orders and payments created through the API flow through to the inventory management COGS report.

The problem is we are not seeing the 'Inventory Management' section within our sandbox environment, located @ https://squareupsandbox.com. We do however see the section in our live dashboard on https://squareup.com.

Is it possible to enable these features in the sandbox so we can properly test?

Hi @sego. I escalated your post to our API team and unfortunately the user interface for inventory isn't currently available with the beta sandbox. You can still test all of the inventory endpoints with the new sandbox and get results (you will even be able to see how much is in stock within the item) — however you aren't able to see the Inventory dropdown in the new sandbox Dashboard.

If you have any other questions let us know! Another good resource is the Square developer community on StackOverflow!
