Question
Expiration Date in reserveItemInventory API.
Answer
reserveItemInventory API provides an ExpirationDate attribute in the input xml, which looks as if it provides a handle to delete the reservations (demands) automatically once that particular date and time are crossed. But, this is not the understanding. Please find the following statement form the DOcumentation which explains the same.
"A reservation can be scheduled to expire by passing a reservation expiration date or time. The expiration date can be specified in an individual order, or a default expiration time can be configured, after which existing reservations are cancelled. This feature allows you to clean up reservations that may not have been cancelled for any reason."
Though there is no automatic deletion of the demands ,the
product provides a handle to an API for the same to make sure we delete such
reservations once the reservation date is expired.
