Hi Ean, Jacopo:
Please forgive if this is obvious, but I don't understand why this is a
desired behavior. Under what circumstances would you need to represent
the inventoryItemId (as serialized inventory) in the shopping cart?
From my reading of the data model, the inventoryItemId (for serialized
inventory) is not the same as a serial number associated with a product.
Again, my understanding: Serialized inventory is used to track each
individual piece of inventory not to uniquely identify a product. Maybe
I've got it all wrong? Am I missing something?
TIA

Yeah, this is not supported ootb because reservations happens when the order is
created, not when the items are added to the cart.
What you described could be handled, with some small changes, creating an order
and then immediately reassigning reservations by specifying the exact inventory
item.
Kind regards,
Jacopo

I may be missing something but it looks like you cannot shop an order
for a piece of serialized inventory as part of your shopping cart
process. Am I wrong about that? If you have a user walk up with, say, a
hard drive or something else with a serial number on it how do you
represent that in the cart? Obviously the order doesn't exist yet, but I
know that no one else can reserve that inventory (for real) since the
user is holding it in their hand.
Any thoughts on this one?
