having trouble with backordered inventory we dropship from specific vendors

Hi Shopify Community,

 

We sell a technology for home energy use.

Right now we have orders and products from several suppliers on back order.

 

We take pre orders and deposits in order to secure the products when they arrive at the warehouse. Which can be in a few days or up to 2 to 3 months. I am looking for an inventory app, that can help to keep track of Payments made, Pre Ordered Products, their ETA for delivery and the Customers that ordered specific back orders by product. 

 

I build most everything through the Shopify admin, but need help behind the scenes with the date inventory  becomes available, when to send the purchase order to the wholesaler (we know approximately when it will arrive), and which clients to contact when their product is available after being on back order for an extended time.

 

Any suggestions for software?  I've looked at several larger inventory solutions that don't quite cover this specific need.

 

Love to hear about any solutions. Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

Thank you,

MIchaelL1
