Retrieve an inventory assembly item

Changed on

Retrieves an inventory assembly item by ID.

IMPORTANT: If you need to fetch multiple specific inventory assembly items by ID, use the list endpoint instead with the ids parameter. It accepts an array of IDs so you can batch the request into a single call, which is significantly faster.

get/quickbooks-desktop/inventory-assembly-items/{id}

Request

Path parameters

idstring required

The QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier of the inventory assembly item to retrieve.

Example:80000001-1234567890

Headers

Conductor-End-User-Idstring required

The ID of the End-User to receive this request.

Example:end_usr_1234567abcdefg

Response

Returns the specified inventory assembly item.

idstring required

The unique identifier assigned by QuickBooks to this inventory assembly item. This ID is unique across all inventory assembly items but not across different QuickBooks object types.

objectType'qbd_inventory_assembly_item' required

The type of object. This value is always "qbd_inventory_assembly_item".

createdAtstring required

The date and time when this inventory assembly item was created, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm), which QuickBooks Desktop interprets in the local timezone of the end-user's computer.

updatedAtstring required

The date and time when this inventory assembly item was last updated, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm), which QuickBooks Desktop interprets in the local timezone of the end-user's computer.

revisionNumberstring required

The current QuickBooks-assigned revision number of this inventory assembly item object, which changes each time the object is modified. When updating this object, you must provide the most recent revisionNumber to ensure you're working with the latest data; otherwise, the update will return an error.

namestring required

The case-insensitive name of this inventory assembly item. Not guaranteed to be unique because it does not include the names of its hierarchical parent objects like fullName does. For example, two inventory assembly items could both have the name "Deluxe Kit", but they could have unique fullName values, such as "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit" and "Inventory:Deluxe Kit".

fullNamestring required

The case-insensitive fully-qualified unique name of this inventory assembly item, formed by combining the names of its hierarchical parent objects with its own name, separated by colons. For example, if an inventory assembly item is under "Assemblies" and has the name "Deluxe Kit", its fullName would be "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit".

NOTE: Unlike name, fullName is guaranteed to be unique across all inventory assembly item objects. However, fullName can still be arbitrarily changed by the QuickBooks user when they modify the underlying name field.

barcodestring nullable required

The inventory assembly item's barcode.

isActiveboolean required

Indicates whether this inventory assembly item is active. Inactive objects are typically hidden from views and reports in QuickBooks. Defaults to true.

sublevelnumber required

The depth level of this inventory assembly item in the hierarchy. A top-level inventory assembly item has a sublevel of 0; each subsequent sublevel increases this number by 1. For example, an inventory assembly item with a fullName of "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit" would have a sublevel of 1.

skustring nullable required

The inventory assembly item's stock keeping unit (SKU), which is sometimes the manufacturer's part number.

salesDescriptionstring nullable required

The description of this inventory assembly item that appears on sales forms (e.g., invoices, sales receipts) when sold to customers.

salesPricestring nullable required

The price at which this inventory assembly item is sold to customers, represented as a decimal string.

purchaseDescriptionstring nullable required

The description of this inventory assembly item that appears on purchase forms (e.g., checks, bills, item receipts) when it is ordered or bought from vendors.

purchaseCoststring nullable required

The cost at which this inventory assembly item is purchased from vendors, represented as a decimal string.

buildNotificationThresholdnumber nullable required

The inventory assembly item's minimum quantity threshold that triggers a build notification in QuickBooks. When the sum of quantityOnHand (current inventory) and quantityOnOrder (pending purchase orders) drops below this threshold, QuickBooks will notify users that more units need to be built or assembled. This helps ensure adequate inventory levels for inventory assembly items.

maximumQuantityOnHandnumber nullable required

The maximum quantity of this inventory assembly item desired in inventory.

quantityOnHandnumber nullable required

The number of units of this inventory assembly item currently in inventory. quantityOnHand multiplied by averageCost equals totalValue for inventory item lists. To change the quantityOnHand for an inventory assembly item, you must use an inventory-adjustment instead of updating the inventory assembly item directly.

averageCoststring nullable required

The average cost per unit of this inventory assembly item, represented as a decimal string.

quantityOnPurchaseOrdernumber nullable required

The number of units of this inventory assembly item that have been ordered from vendors (as recorded in purchase orders) but not yet received.

quantityOnSalesOrdernumber nullable required

The number of units of this inventory assembly item that have been sold (as recorded in sales orders) but not yet fulfilled or delivered to customers.

externalIdstring nullable required

A globally unique identifier (GUID) you, the developer, can provide for tracking this object in your external system. This field is immutable and can only be set during object creation.
