What's the best app for managing inventory purchases?

Shopify Apps

Hi guys,

I’m looking for an app to help manage our purchases. I’ve trialed quite a few and none have all the features we need.

We need one which:

  1. Allows you to set a minimum inventory number

  2. Accounts for products which have been ordered but have not yet arrived

  3. Generates a list of products to be purchased based on - - .

  4. Purchase order ‘put away’ sheets to make receipt of stock easier.

Thanks for any help!

Hey

We have our own purchase ordering system that integrates with Shopify. You set up restock level for each product and when stock follows below this it gets added to a report each day. From here you can generate purchase orders to your suppliers that get emailed.

We specialize in bespoke and custom solutions so we add features for our clients when items are missing from our core application.

If you would like to test it out please get in touch.

Regards

Tom

we are interested to train this app to see if it works

we have around 3,000 active products that sell and around 15K that are usless and do nothing with zero sales history

so it needs to work on 3,000 sku - is that achieveable?

@PFry things like this can also be put together using automation tools like usemechanic scripting

Category - https://apps.shopify.com/browse/store-management-operations-workflow-automation

App - https://apps.shopify.com/mechanic

With tools like that you would either control things like minimum-inventory as simple metafields on the productVariant itself or in the config of such a script.

This approach works well instead of a dedicated niche app if you also have other automations needing implementation.

Things like this can also be done with services like zapier,integromat,airtable wired to google-sheets/docs; useful if your already using those services.
