system.kanoa.inventory.addModel(modelInfo, userId)

Adds a new model to the inventory catalog, or updates an existing one when modelId is included in modelInfo. A model represents a specific equipment/asset model made by a manufacturer (e.g. a catalog entry for a pump or motor model), distinct from a Part, which is an individual replaceable component. This upsert behavior is the only mechanism for modifying an existing model as there is no separate updateModel or updateModelField function.
