How to sync imventory between different embroidery designs

How to sync imventory between different embroidery designs

Hi everyone,

I embroider polos with different designs and manage my inventory based on customer orders. When a customer orders a medium polo with one design, the available stock for medium polos in all other designs should decrease by one as well.

How can I sync my stock levels across all designs so that when one design is ordered, the stock for the same size in other designs updates accordingly?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi, there

Is the design you have a kind of variant of your medium polo product? I'm saying that a medium polo has loads of variants. So which one is a variant here?

The sizing is the variant the designs are individual products since every design is a different student associations crest. Selling the Logos as variants of the polo would have the problem that i couldnt categorize them as different problem, i think?

Hi @PolosByTeddy 

 

We understand your requirement. Please check out our app, Inventory Sync GoGo. With our app, you can sync the inventory of multiple Shopify products that represent the same physical product, as you mentioned in your query. To synchronize inventory for common products, simply activate the "autoSyncBySKU" setting in the app and ensure that all these common items on Shopify have the same SKU. The app will sync the inventory of these products in real-time.

 

Please download the app; it offers a generous number of syncs for free so you can test its functionality. You will only need to pay for the app if you find it useful for your needs.

We developed Fusion Inventory to solve this kind of use case. We have print-on-demand merchants using it to solve a similar inventory problem. Here is how it works.

 

Here are the setup instructions. Fairly straightforward with bulk upload capability if you have a lot of SKUs.

 

Feel free to email me if you have any questions. 🙂

Hi @PolosByTeddy,

You might find the Easify Inventory Sync app helpful for managing products with different designs that share the same inventory, based on the blank polos 😊.

For example, let’s say your polo comes in 2 sizes (S and M) and you have 5 different designs, each available in both sizes.

You can create 2 inventory groups to connect the inventories for these products:

  • Group 1: Polo - S, which includes all S variants of your 5 design products.
  • Group 2: Polo - M, which includes all M variants of your 5 design products.

For each group, you can set a mutual inventory reflecting the shared stock for all products in the group.

When any product in the group is purchased, the mutual inventory is automatically updated, and the new inventory level is applied to the other products in the same group.

I hope you give the app a try, it's very easy to use! If you need any help with the setup, feel free to reach out to the Easify team.
