Store Design

Topic summary

Request to enhance Inventory details with quick product lifecycle actions.

  • Context: Retailer with two brick-and-mortar locations plus a small e‑commerce channel, managing thousands of SKUs.
  • Current workflow: Uses Orders > Inventory details to check restock needs; marking items to reorder or discontinue takes 2–3 steps across different areas.
  • Requested features: Within Inventory details, add one-click options to “Add to Reorder List” and “Add to Do‑Not‑Reorder List.” Maintain centralized lists to reference during purchasing and when archiving/deleting products.
  • Rationale/benefit: Consolidate decisions in one place, reduce clicks, and streamline replenishment and product sunset workflows amid frequently changing assortments.
  • Status: Feature request; no responses, decisions, or implementation timelines indicated.

I’m not entirely sure if this is the right place to add this but I’m not finding a place to add functionality and UX requests.

My store includes 2 brick and mortar and a small amount of e-commerce and we carry thousands of different products. I often scroll the orders and use the ‘Inventory details’ function to check if products that have sold need to be restocked. Because we change up what we carry a lot I would love a feature in the inventory details section to ‘add to re-order list’ or ‘add to do not re-order list’ so I can do this all in one place and just refer to these lists when I’m doing ordering or archiving/deleting products. It’s usually a 2-3 step slog to do this and a built-in re-order list would be so so helpful!
