Merchbees Inventory Value

Only just got started but seems to do what it says on the tin. Support was responsive and helpful when I had questions.

Easy to navigate UI, accurate representations of inventory value, and in depth info on each SKU when needed. Spent extensive time looking for an app that specifically addresses the poor value reporting in Shopify, and this is by far the best one.

Finally a solution to having accurate inventory values. Quick summary: Merchbee allows you to filter out variants you want to exclude from the inventory count! Detailed explainer why this is important: We have over 200 products in our store and some of these are package deal bundles. eg. A package deal includes 1 of product A 5 of product B 2 of product C We use another app called Bundles to create these and keep the original inventory numbers updated. So if someone buys the above package deal, the inventory of those individual products has to automatically be reduced. Product A has inventory reduced by 1 Product B has inventory reduced by 5 Product C has inventory reduced by 2 all done automatically by the Bundles app. Brilliant! But then we have a new problem because the Bundles app is showing all these package deals as inventory in Shopify (based on the amount of stock available as individual products.) In the above example if we had 50 of each of the individual Product A,B,C in stock that would allow us to make up a maximum of 10 of the above package deals (because product B requires 5 units) Shopify thinks.. Product A,B,C have 50 each PLUS Our package Deal has 10 (that could be made using these products) and adds it together causing an overinflated inventory. We have been using other apps like Ordermetrics which does this and is very annoying. This Merchbees app allows you to exclude selected variants from the inventory count. So I can go through and exclude the bundles and have it only count the individual products. So I went through and excluded any variant that is a 2 pack, 3 pack, Kit, Package deal and left all the individual products in the count. And then even better, I can save that as a preset and adjust it later as we introduce more bundle deals which need to be excluded. Hope that explainer helps someone. I find the app demo videos a bit useless in practical terms. Great app and worth $2.99 a month to know what money we have tied up in inventory. The only thing is doesnt have is the ability to look at a particular date in the past to know the inventory. For accounting this would be good.. Sometimes the accountant says I need to know your inventory at the end of last month. Great if you were organised and did it on the 30th of the month, not so good if you miss it and are a week or more late. Im sure Merchbees will have that as a upcoming feature. :-)

Love this app. Our accountant said I'd need to start taking inventory value for tax purposes and lucked out when I found this app. It does it all for me. Thanks!

Thank you for making this App. All I needed was a simple and free way to see the current value of inventory. This was it!
