Phoenix Stocks

About Phoenix Stocks

Phoenix Stocks connects Enfocus Switch directly to your Enfocus Phoenix stock library. Manage the stocks, grades, sheets, and rolls that drive your imposition jobs - automatically, from inside a flow.

Eliminate manual stock maintenance and enable reliable end-to-end integration across your stock workflow, while saving up to 100 hours of configuration and development time. Phoenix Stocks is especially useful for businesses managing many stock types, keeping your MIS and Phoenix in sync.

What it does

Whether you're onboarding a new substrate, syncing materials from your MIS, or tidying up old entries, Phoenix Stocks lets you do it without clicking through the Phoenix interface. One configurator, every stock-library task.

Six actions, four targets

• Find stocks, grades, sheets, or rolls that match your criteria
• Check for an item and route the job based on whether it exists
• Create new stocks - complete with inline grades, sheets, and rolls in a single step
• Edit existing items, individually or in bulk
• Duplicate a stock - clone it with all its grades, sheets, and rolls under a new name; clone many at once and indexed "-1", "-2", … suffixes keep names unique
• Delete items that are no longer needed

Flexible, operator-based search

Look up items by Name, ID, External ID, Description, or Notes using familiar operators like Equals, Contains, and Starts With. Narrow results by parent stock or parent grade, or leave the filter blank to operate across the whole library.

Built for production flows

• Every job produces a clean JSON result file you can branch on downstream
• Errors come back as structured JSON too — no parsing log messages
• Three-way routing: Success, Warning, and Error. The Warning route fires whenever the app's behavior diverged from your literal request - Override actually deleted data, a duplicate weight caused a skip, an "edit existing" fell back to creating a new entry, or a multi-match duplicate auto-suffixed names. Each divergence is listed in the result JSON so flows can react precisely.
• Automatic retry when Phoenix is busy, so transient load doesn't stall the flow
• Safe to run alongside other Phoenix-aware Switch apps - Phoenix Stocks coordinates API calls across them to prevent conflicts

Who it's for

Print operations and prepress teams using Enfocus Phoenix who need to automate stock-library synchronization through API-based workflows, including stock creation, updates, duplication, and removal from upstream systems.
