Retail hardware, software, and Shopify Point of Sale
Hello,
We run 2 physical stores using POS Pro, and have a warehouse for online fulfillment. Is there an option to transfer inventory from the warehouse to the physical stores, that automatically informs the staff on their POS system what is coming in by style/quantity, rather than doing it manually on the app?
Thanks.
Similar problem here, and no there is no way for the POS system to be notified of transfer goods being sent to their location. Doesnt look like this is a priority for shopify either to address this or many other physical retail store POS issues that arise.
Only way a POS can be notified of transfers coming to them is using "stocky app". But this requires a person to login to the admin side on a computer and initiate a transfer of product from location to location, then have "stocky app" tile installed on POS. This is not an ideal situation when you have junior staff getting into the heart of your inventory management system to transfer a product to another location for a customer.
What is the point of having shopify POS being able to see inventory of a certain product for a customer at another location without being able to initiate a transfer right then and there in the POS system?!?! It seems to me that shopify doesnt have any employees that know and understand physical retail to address these basic everyday tasks that physical (multi location) stores do on a daily bases to grow. This is also annoying as they charge you more to run multi location business.
The reply to this will be to have a third party app developed for this just watch.
