ReviseInventoryStatus an efficient light-weight call that we recommend sellers use when they want to revise price and/or quantity of their fixed-price listing. The call allows you to revise these parameters for 4 items in a single request.
Here is a Java ReviseInventoryStatus sample. This sample has been written using the Java SDK v673
/**
* Sample code for ReviseInventoryStatus API using eBay Java SDK.
*
* Steps for creating a successful ReviseInventoryStatus call.
*
* 1. Create API Context and set the right credentials.
* 2. Create one InventoryStatusType object for each SKU/Item to be updated.
* 3. Do the necessary changes to the InventoryStatusType object. For setting price, an AmountType object is needed.
* 4. Add all the InventoryStatusType objects to an InventoryStatusType array.
* 5. Set this array to the ReviseInventoryStatusCall object with setInventoryStatus().
* 6. Call the ReviseInventoryStatusCall#reviseInventoryStatus() method.
*
* The following code sample updates inventory (quantity, price or both) for four items belonging to a user.
