Hello @RowanFoster ,
Sorry, just seeing this now. Are you still looking for a solution?

Topic summary
Main issue: A retailer with two locations needs to replace an IMS that daily flags variants in Warehouse A at ≤5 units and compiles a restock list from overflow Warehouse B. Shopify Flow attempts didn’t meet the requirement; they’re considering a custom API/app.
Proposed solutions:
- Build a custom app using Shopify Inventory APIs (e.g., InventoryLevel via Admin GraphQL) to monitor thresholds in A and check B for availability, then generate restock lists/transfer tasks.
- Evaluate inventory apps: Stocky, Sumtracker, and others. OP notes existing apps don’t handle overflow logic well.
- SKUSavvy suggested for warehouse transfers and bin-to-bin replenishment using min/max (par) levels. An image was shared, but it’s not essential to understand the thread.
- ZORP proposed to centralize multi-warehouse inventory and asked whether the workflow requires physical stock movement or just updating on-hand counts.
Recent updates:
- A contributor attempted to schedule a call; link failed; requested OP’s email and follow-up confirmation.
Status and next steps:
- No resolution yet. OP is leaning toward a custom app. Key open question: whether replenishment should trigger actual transfers or only inventory adjustments.
