Confirm there are not already settings or features that do what the shop is asking for:
  • Confirmed. Currently, AI Bestie doesn’t have the option to mark any product variant as Received or Not Received.
  • Shop mentioned that : The existing MCP/Bestie integration endpoint (update_variant) allows updating variant detail fields such as color, size, SKU, cost, barcode, and dimensions, as well as updating unit counts via adjust_inventory_level. However, there is currently no capability or field within the API endpoint or AI Bestie to directly update the "Received" status of a variant.
What does the shop want the product to do?
  • The shop wants the MCP API endpoint (update_variant) and AI Bestie to support updating the "Received" status for a product variant. Specifically, they are asking to add a received boolean field (true/false) to the existing update_variant endpoint by inventory_id.
Why/how would it improve sales or efficiency?
  • Operational Efficiency: It automates and streamlines inventory receiving management by enabling AI Bestie (or external MCP integrations) to automatically flip variants to "Received" status without requiring staff to manually log into the CommentSold admin panel to update receiving statuses.
  • Faster Time-to-Market / Sales: Rapidly marking inventory as "Received" ensures newly arrived stock instantly becomes accurate and available for selling, preventing inventory processing bottlenecks and sales delays.
