Partner Registration Automation

Shipment API

The following API exposes all information around shipments of hardware either to partners directly or to customers via their partners. An important piece of information included in this API is the serial numbers for all hardware. This is a crucial component for both inventory and automation purposes, as the serial number uniquely identifies each piece of Rhombus hardware, and is used for registration, un-registration, RMA, Support Tickets, etc.

Shipment information is associated with a customer and partner at the time an order is placed. Creating client accounts before an order is placed is necessary for the association to take place.
