Previous state

Apps could schedule future inventory changes through inventorySetScheduledChanges.

Current state

The mutation is removed with no like-for-like replacement. inventoryAdjustQuantities can apply immediate adjustments but does not preserve scheduled-change semantics.

Who needs to care

Shopify apps using scheduled inventory changes through the Admin GraphQL API.

What to do

Remove calls to inventorySetScheduledChanges and redesign scheduling behaviour rather than treating immediate quantity adjustment as equivalent.

What the source does not prove

inventoryAdjustQuantities is an immediate adjustment mechanism, not a replacement for scheduled inventory semantics.
