Catalog Overview

Ottimate’s Catalog Match / Item Validation feature enables client users to validate supplier line-item information on an invoice against the client’s item/inventory catalog. With the Catalog APIs, clients can:

• Keep inventory/item in sync with Ottimate by creating and updating catalog items in Ottimate
• Fetch pricing variations between catalog items and invoice items
• Export catalog entries with corresponding purchase items in Ottimate to update inventory counts and pricing where necessary

To use the Catalog APIs, a client must first be onboarded and configured in Ottimate.

Note that there is no UI for the end user to view and browse the catalog entries that have been synced to Ottimate. Ottimate considers the client’s Inventory Management System to be the sytem of record.
