Include absolute quantity in SIM- Inventory Adjustment event

We would like to have some additional data in 'Inventory Adjustment event' - https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/store-engagement?topic=events-inventory-adjustment

Currently, this event returns the adjustedquantity whenever the Inventory is adjusted.

"adjustmentQuantity": -4,


Our ask is if we can have the total/absolute quantity in that location also returned, whenever there is an adjustment. This is to make sure there are no additional updates and incorrect inventory picture in case of any failures.

How will this idea be used?

Inventory snapshot event gives the complete inventory picture of all SKUs/location for the store.

Inventory adjustment event gives the adjusted quantity of SKU/location whenever there is an adjustment. Our ask is if we can have the total/absolute quantity in that location also returned in the same event, whenever there is an adjustment. This will ensure the total quantity is properly adjusted without the issue of having accidental increments/decrements in case of a failure.
