Overview

This guide describes the RESTful API of the OpenWMS.org WMS Receiving Service module and its usage. Some general terms and definitions are explained and declared in the first part of the document whereas in the second part the usage of the API is shown in a more use-case-driven approach.

Representation Formats

Basically JSON is used as representation format by default if not otherwise requested or mentioned below. XML format is supported for the index pages as well, but must be requested explicitly. Furthermore a vendor specific JSON format is used to represent resource representations. Therefore it’s absolutely required the Accept header denotes the demanded type. Find the type in the examples below.

Dates in JSON

Date or datetime fields are not treated specially in JSON. Within the scope of this API a date or datetime field is always expected and rendered as JSON String in ISO8601 format with timezone information and milliseconds: yyyy-MM-dd’T’HH:mm:ss.SSSTZD.

Embedded Entities

For the sake of convenience some response entities may included embedded entities or even parts of it. A reference to the actual entity is provided as HAL link as well.

Error Responses

Beside the actual representation of resources, the server may result an error response in JSON format that contains basic information about the error occurred. This information is additional to the standard HTTP status code and may help clients to identify the error cause in order to re-phrase and send the request again.

Currently there are two types of errors with their own response formats.

Server Declined Errors

This kind of errors are sent by the server runtime environment even before the request had a chance to be processed.

An example response looks like this:

{
    "timestamp": 1512400854941,
    "status": 500,
    "error": "Internal Server Error",
    "exception": "org.ameba.oauth2.InvalidTokenException",
    "message": "JWT expired at 2017-12-04T15:04:43Z. Current time: 2017-12-04T15:20:54Z, ...",
    "path": "/v1/transport-units?bk=00000000000000004711"
}

The JSON structure contains the following fields.

Property Name Description

timestamp

When the error occurred on server side

status

The http status of the error

error

A short error text

exception

Internal class name of the Java exception type

message

A more descriptive error text describing the error in detail

path

The part of the URI for the REST resource that was queried

API Declined Errors

Those errors are thrown within the REST API validation and processing logic. For example, if a client request does not match the expected format or has produced an error on server side, the API will decline the request and return a response with status client-side error (4xx).

The structure of the response is aligned to the RFC7808. An example response looks like this:

{
    "message": "LocationGroup with name [NOT_EXISTS] not found",
    "messageKey": "owms.common.common.lg.notFoundByName",
    "obj" : [ "NOT_EXISTS" ],
    "httpStatus" : "404",
    "class" : "String"
}

The JSON structure contains the following fields.

Property Name Description

message

A short error text

messageKey

An unique identifier across the API that can be used to identify and translate the error message on the client side

obj

An array of possible passed arguments to the message

httpStatus

The http status of the error

class

The arguments type

Following message keys are currently used:

Message Key Description Action

not.found

The requested resource has not been found

The resource does not exist anymore or has never existed. The resource identifier must be verified

Index

The initial HTTP request to retrieve information about all available resources looks like the following. The Index page is a public available resource and does not need any authentication.

GET /index HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080

The Index resource is returned in the response body with the response status of 200-OK. This main Index lists all primary resource entities to follow next.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 125

{
  "_links" : {
    "receiving-order-index" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8080/v1/receiving-orders/index"
    }
  }
}

A client application only needs to know about the agreed link names and follow the corresponding href link to navigate to further resources.

ReceivingOrder

A ReceivingOrder represents an announcement of goods the are expected to be received at the warehouse. Usually these kind of orders are sent by the ERP system prior to the actual physical goods receipt. A ReceivingOrder is just the envelope that contains ReceivingOrderPositions, where each position determines the expected product and a quantity.

ReceivingOrder Index

The index with all possible operations on a ReceivingOrder can be retrieved with a GET request:

GET /v1/receiving-orders/index HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080

The response lists all the operations possible on ReceivingOrders with a name and the corresponding href link:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 1040

{
  "_links" : {
    "receiving-order-findall" : {
      "href" : "http://localhost:8080/v1/receiving-orders"

    }
  }
}

Create a ReceivingOrder

The POST operation takes a flat structure of a simple ReceivingOrder to create.

POST /v1/receiving-orders HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/vnd.openwms.receiving-order-v1+json
Content-Length: 410
Host: localhost:8080

    "positionId" : 1,
    "quantityExpected" : {
      "@class" : "org.openwms.core.units.api.Piece",
      "unitType" : [ "org.openwms.core.units.api.PieceUnit", "PC" ],
      "magnitude" : 1
    },
    "product" : {

  "orderId" : "4712",
  "state" : "CREATED",
  "positions" : [ {
    "@class" : "org.openwms.wms.receiving.api.ReceivingOrderPositionVO",

    },
    "state" : "CREATED",
    "details" : {
      "p1" : "v1"
    }
  } ]
}

In case the client request did not match the server expectations because of invalid or missing fields in the request body, the server responds with:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 110

{
  "message" : "Generic validation error",
  "messageKey" : "core.validation.error",
  "httpStatus" : "400"
}

Find a ReceivingOrder by Persistent Key

A HTTP GET request is required to lookup a `ReceivingOrder by its synthetic persistent key.

GET /v1/receiving-orders/d8099b89-bdb6-40d3-9580-d56aeadd578f HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080

If the ReceivingOrder has been found, the server returns the order instance in the response body:

In case the order does not exist, the server responds with a error of the 4xx-client family because the pKey is expected to exist:

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 188

{
  "message" : "ReceivingOrder with ID [unknown] does not exist",

}

Find a ReceivingOrder by Order ID

A HTTP GET request is required to find a ReceivingOrder by it’s identifying business key, the order ID.

GET /v1/receiving-orders?orderId=T4711 HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080

If the ReceivingOrder has been found, the server returns the order instance in the response body:

    "transportUnitTypeName" : "EURO",
    "state" : "CREATED"
  } ]
}

In case the order does not exist, the server responds in the same way like Find a ReceivingOrder by Persistent Key.

Find all ReceivingOrders

A HTTP GET request to the primary resource is required to find all `ReceivingOrders. Notice, this method is foreseen for UI applications and may change in future API versions.

GET /v1/receiving-orders HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080

Returns an array of ReceivingOrders or an empty array:

  } ]
} ]

Cancel a ReceivingOrder

An earlier created ReceivingOrder can be cancelled for further processing. The client needs to send a HTTP `DELETE request with the unique identifier of the order.

PATCH /v1/receiving-orders/769522bd-cd0d-4f55-bc4e-b58f1c316882/ HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/vnd.openwms.receiving-order-v1+json
Content-Length: 48
Host: localhost:8080

{
  "orderId" : "4714",
  "state" : "CANCELED"
}

If the ReceivingOrder has been cancelled, the server returns with:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/vnd.openwms.receiving-order-v1+json
Content-Length: 111

{
  "ol" : 0,
  "pKey" : "769522bd-cd0d-4f55-bc4e-b58f1c316882",
  "orderId" : "4714",
  "state" : "CANCELED"
}

In case the order couldn’t be cancelled because the order is already in process or has been processed, the server responds with:

HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 272

{
  "message" : "Cancellation of ReceivingOrder with orderId [4716] is not allowed because order is already in state [PROCESSED]",
  "messageKey" : "owms.wms.rec.recOrderCancellationDenied",
  "obj" : [ "4716", "PROCESSED" ],
  "httpStatus" : "403",
  "class" : "String"
}

Capture a Receiving

When products arrive at the warehouse they are usually announced with a ReceivingOrder and its ReceivingOrderPositions beforehand. This is called an expected receipt. Also unexpected receipts may occur, any unplanned material that needs to be stored in the warehouse without any previously received order information. Unexpected receipts may also happen as part of an expected receipt when a supplier ships more of a product that was previously announced in a ReceivingOrderPosition. Multiple capturing types exists:

  • Expected Product are captured on a LoadUnit

  • Expected Product are captured on a Location

  • Expected TransportUnits without Product information are captured on a Location

The capturing process happens at the Goods In area of the warehouse, where material arrives and is identified (captured). The identified articles or TransportUnits are assigned to ReceivingOrderPositions.

Capture an expected Product on a LoadUnit

The received Product is identified and assigned to an existing ReceivingOrderPosition. As part of the capturing process the items are basically placed on a LoadUnit on top of a TransportUnit.

To capture an amount of a Product in the context of a ReceivingOrder the caller sends a POST request to the server with the identifying pKey of the ReceivingOrder as part of the URI:

If no open ReceivingOrderPosition exists in the ReceivingOrder or the Product does not fit to the list of expected Products and overbooking an expected ReceivingOrderPosition is not allowed, the server does not allow to receive the goods and responds with an error:

HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 223

{
  "message" : "Received a goods receipt but all ReceivingOrderPositions are already satisfied and unexpected receipts are not allowed",
  "messageKey" : "owms.wms.rec.recOrderNoUnexpectedAllowed",
  "httpStatus" : "409"
}

Overbooking means: The Receiving Service allows Overbooking or not. In case Overbooking is allowed, the supplier can ship a higher quantity than previously announced in the ReceivingOrderPosition. If Overbooking is forbidden, the server raises an exception in case of more is received than expected. This setting is currently configured service wide and not per Product.

Capture an expected Product on a Location

The received Product is identified and assigned to an existing ReceivingOrderPosition. As part of the capturing process the items are placed on a Location directly without any carrier like a LoadUnit or a TransportUnit.

To capture an amount of a Product in the context of a ReceivingOrder the caller sends a POST request to the server with the identifying pKey of the ReceivingOrder as part of the URI:

If no open ReceivingOrderPosition exists in the ReceivingOrder or the Product does not fit to the list of expected Products, the server does not allow to receive the article and responds with an error:

Capture an expected TransportUnit on a Location

It may happen that an external supplier ships back existing and empty TransportUnits to the warehouse. In this case, the announced ReceivingOrder contains ReceivingOrderPositions that point to the expected TransportUnit.

To capture an received TransportUnit the operator identifies (e.g. scans) the TransportUnit and the LoadUnit on top (optional) and the client device sends a POST request to the server with the identifying pKey of the ReceivingOrder as part of the URI:
