Hi Rusty, are you still looking for help with the SOS Inventory work-order sync? I’d start by inspecting the failed write-back step and testing one work order in your SOS sandbox. Could you share the failing Make module and a redacted error response, with tokens and customer data removed? I’ll assess whether I can resolve that specific issue and propose a fixed scope and price before any paid work. The proposed deliverable would include the agreed fix, a repeatable test, and short maintenance notes. I use AI-assisted debugging and verify results with tests.
Hi Rusty, just wanted to check if you’re still having trouble with the SOS Inventory write-back. If you haven’t got it sorted yet, would you be open to a short paid diagnostic to figure out what’s causing it???
Your concern about the team being helpless when one system changes is valid. The first goal should be to isolate the failed SOS Inventory write-back and document it clearly—not rebuild the Sales Order side that already works.
My strongest hands-on work is with n8n, inventory reconciliation, REST APIs, Google Sheets, duplicate prevention, validation and error handling. I haven’t completed a client project using this exact Make + SOS Inventory combination, so I’d start with a small fixed diagnostic instead of overstating experience.
For $75, I would:
• Review the failed Make module using a sanitized request and response
• Determine whether the blocker is trial-account permissions, authentication, payload structure or workflow logic
• Test one minimal Work Order creation path in the SOS sandbox
• Provide the exact repair scope and maintenance checks
If the write path works, the $75 would be credited toward the implementation. No credentials or live customer data should be posted publicly.
Hi Rusty, if this is still open, I’d be interested in the paid repair. I’ve built integrations connecting project records, timesheets and expenses, and repaired Make workflows where the important part was verifying the destination write rather than just getting a successful HTTP response.
I’d start with one batch in your SOS sandbox and trace its source sales-order IDs, item IDs, quantities and the work-order request/response. The first milestone would be one correctly linked work order, a repeat-run check so it can’t be created twice, and a clear record of any rejected items. No live inventory changes during diagnosis.
Could you share a redacted failing request or scenario screenshot and what a correct work order should contain? We can agree a capped paid repair in writing before touching the workflow.
Hi Rusty — if the SOS Inventory Work Order write-back is still unresolved, I’d keep the first step very narrow and avoid rebuilding the part that already works.
My background is about five years working directly inside SME HR/GA/operations. At CLEAR MERIT I focus on understanding the actual operating process, defining the smallest scope and setting clear acceptance criteria.
Technical tracing, debugging, testing and documentation are handled through CLEAR MERIT’s AI-assisted delivery process under my responsibility.
For the first step, I’d propose:
$99 fixed / 2 business days
One bounded diagnostic covering only the Work Order write-back failure.
I’d need:
the failing Make module
redacted request/response or error
what should happen
what happens instead
one test case that would count as “fixed”
Deliverables:
root-cause finding
exact repair scope
repeatable acceptance test
failure/retry checks
short maintenance note
No production credentials or live customer data are needed for the initial diagnostic.
If the write-back issue is still open, which step currently fails when the Work Order is sent to SOS Inventory?
You already have the difficult part partly working the Sales Orders and Inventory are reaching Make.com. The bottleneck is getting the generated Work Order written back into SOS Inventory correctly.
I can troubleshoot the existing scenario, identify exactly where the SOS Inventory API/module mapping is breaking, fix the Work Order sync, and test the full flow using your sandbox account.
I have built 40+ AI/automation agents and delivered results across 30+ automation projects, with hands-on Make.com, API, webhook, data mapping, and error-handling experience.
Since you already have the scenario built, I would rather fix what you have than rebuild it unnecessarily.
Can you share the current Make.com scenario and the error/response you get when it tries to create the Work Order in SOS Inventory?
Hi @Rusty_Phillips — is the Work Order write-back still unresolved, or have you already hired someone? I can assess a small paid repair starting with the failing request and response from your SOS sandbox.
Your maintenance concern matters: I would include a repeatable sandbox test and a short troubleshooting guide covering the agreed failure cases. Ongoing support would need a separate, defined scope.
My work is AI-assisted, and I have no prior SOS Inventory client deployment to claim. If this is still open, please share the failing module, a redacted error/request/response, and your budget. Please remove credentials and customer data. I can then confirm whether I can reproduce the issue and propose a fixed scope, price and delivery date.
Hi Rusty, is the SOS Inventory write-back issue still unresolved?
If so, I may be able to help with that specific Make scenario. I’d suggest keeping the first pass limited to the failed work-order write-back path so it’s easy to test and hand over.
If you’re still looking, feel free to share a redacted failed run and the relevant part of the scenario.
Rusty, leave the working Sales Order side alone. The stuck piece is the work order write back to SOS.
Make’s SOS Inventory connector can list sales orders and items, but it does not have a native Create Work Order module. The write has to be an HTTP module, POST /api/v2/workorder. Use the existing SOS ids for the item, location, and source order. Do not send a work-order id or line ids. SOS assigns those when it creates the record.
Because this is a trial sandbox, check write permission before changing the scenario. Send one minimal work order and read the raw HTTP status and body, not the summary Make shows. A 401 or 403 means the trial or the token cannot write work orders, and editing the payload will not fix that. A 400 that names a field means the body is wrong.
Paste that raw status and body here with the token removed, and the next step is clear. No credentials.
Rusty, your sales-order batch will come back as a saved, verified SOS work order. I finish your existing Make flow for USD 790 fixed, delivered on 17 October, including the recovery guide your team needs when a request breaks.
I have already executed a demonstration for your writeback: 19 checks passed, quantities 2 + 1.5 became 3.5, and 16 concurrent replays left one work order for the original batch. An uncertain response enters review instead of creating another order. The attached two-page plan shows the actual personal HTTP demonstration and saved result.
Start Monday 12 October, first sandbox batch on 14 October, delivery on 17 October. One agreed batching rule, existing SOS connection, writeback and readback, persistent batch record, error/review branch, blueprint and guide. One correction round and 14 days of conformity support are included.
Delivered to the attached scope or my fee refunded in full. Reply OK and I start Monday 12 October at 9:00 Paris time.
