Stocky Alternative with Adjustment History

[Tarrah28]

I am after an alternative to Stocky as it is constantly causing us headaches. 

In an alternative however we must be able to adjust stock with a reason (I.e. Expired, Returned to Supplier, Donations) and download reports of adjustments for the past 12 months. 

Any assistance narrowing down alternatives would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Tarrah28 

there are great alternatives. SKULabs, Cin7 Core, Katana, and QuickBooks Commerce all offer stock adjustments with reason tracking (e.g., expired, returned, donated) and detailed reports for 12+ months. If you need seamless reporting and supplier integration, Cin7 Core is a strong choice. For user-friendly tracking and expiry management, Katana works well. If you’re looking for accounting integration, QuickBooks Commerce is a solid option

Maybe you've already chosen a Stocky replacement but if not I'd like to put SKUSavvy into the ring. It's probably best suited as a replacement since it has all the capability of Stocky with the addition of more warehouse related features and of course detailed logs of every single action that happens in the warehouse. Logs include:

• Complete warehouse log
• Order logs (purchase orders, outbound orders, transfers)
• Employee logs
• bin logs
• SKU logs
• Stock take logs
• Batch logs

Stock adjustments are easily done by scan, search, or simply tapping the quantity and can require a custom reason. You'll find all you need to run your warehouse in one SKUSavvy account. Below are the critical considerations:

• Advanced Inventory Control:

  • Real-time Stock Levels: Always know your exact inventory count across all locations and channels, preventing overselling and ensuring accuracy.
  • Multi-Location Inventory: Seamlessly manage inventory across multiple warehouses, retail stores, and even third-party logistics (3PL) locations, providing a unified view of all your stock.
  • Batch & Lot Tracking: Maintain granular control over inventory with expiry dates, serial numbers, and batch details, crucial for perishable goods, quality control, or product recalls.
  • Inventory Bundling & Kitting: Easily create and manage product bundles or kits, automatically adjusting component inventory when a bundle is sold.
  • Inventory Counts & Cycle Counting: Robust tools for efficient cycle counting and full stocktakes, helping maintain inventory accuracy and reduce discrepancies.

• Comprehensive Order Fulfillment:

  • Streamlined Picking & Packing: Optimize picking routes (e.g., batch picking, zone picking) for efficiency, reducing travel time in the warehouse.
  • Customizable Packing Slips & Labels: Generate professional packing slips and shipping labels directly within the system.
  • Barcode Scanning Integration: Utilize barcode scanners for accurate receiving, picking, packing, and shipping, minimizing manual errors.
  • Shipping Integrations: Connect with major shipping carriers to automate rate shopping, label generation, and tracking updates.
  • Order Status Management: Track orders through every stage of the fulfillment process, from placed to shipped, with automated updates.

• Intelligent Purchasing & Replenishment:

  • Demand Forecasting (Beyond Min/Max): Utilize data-driven insights to predict future demand, helping you make smarter purchasing decisions and optimize inventory levels.
  • Automated Reorder Points: Set dynamic reorder points to trigger purchase orders when stock levels hit predefined minimums, preventing stockouts.
  • Supplier Management: Centralize supplier information and manage purchase orders efficiently, from creation to receipt.

• Robust Returns Management:

  • Flexible Return Workflows: Manage returns initiated from Shopify or directly within SKUSavvy, automating restocking or directing items to specific disposition bins (e.g., "damaged," "resalable," "quarantine").
  • Exchange Management: Seamlessly process product exchanges, updating inventory and order statuses automatically.

• Warehouse Layout & Optimization (Visual WMS):

  • 3D Warehouse Visualization: Gain a visual understanding of your warehouse layout, bin locations, and inventory placement, aiding in optimization and training.
  • Bin & Location Management: Precisely organize and track inventory down to the specific bin location within your warehouse.

• Powerful Reporting & Analytics:

  • Customizable Reports: Generate detailed reports on inventory adjustments, sales trends, fulfillment performance, labor efficiency, and more, tailoring them to your specific needs.
  • Historical Data Access: Easily access and report on historical data for comprehensive analysis (e.g., past 12 months of adjustments, sales by season).
  • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Monitor essential metrics to track efficiency, identify bottlenecks, and make informed business decisions.

• Seamless Shopify Integration:

  • Deep Sync: Bi-directional syncing of orders, products, and inventory levels with Shopify, ensuring data consistency across platforms.
  • Shopify Flow Automation: Leverage Shopify Flow to automate workflows between SKUSavvy and other apps in your ecosystem.

• Scalability & Future-Proofing:
