What is an Inventory Sync?

Inventory Sync in Reekoh enables you to seamlessly synchronize all devices registered from the third-party device management software to Reekoh's device registry, making it easier to manage and keep the device inventory updated. With the use of the Inventory Sync Plugins specifically developed to integrate with the third-party device management software, you can schedule the inventory sync interval or you can manually sync device inventory and registry to and from the Reekoh Platform.

The illustration above shows the exchange of device inventory between the Reekoh Platform and the third-party device management software. The platform triggers the following internal events:

• New Device Registration
• Device Record Updates
• Device Record Deletion

These same events are then propagated by the platform to all Inventory Sync Plugins configured for the account. If the Inventory Sync Plugin can do the same to the third-party device management software, the inventory sync operation will run.

Aside from Reekoh Platform and Inventory Sync Plugins doing the sync operation to the third-party device management software as scheduled, the Inventory Sync Plugins can also retrieve device inventory from the third-party device management software every time the Sync event is run. The device records retrieved will then be synchronized with Reekoh.

Note: All devices retrieved from the third-party device management software will be displayed in the Devices page.
