Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSelling supplements, food, cosmetics or CBD? Every batch has a shelf life, and Shopify has nowhere to put it. Log a lot code, expiry date, quantity, supplier and COA link on any variant. The dashboard splits stock into expired, expiring soon and safe. FEFO tells pickers which batch to ship first and holds back expired ones. Email each location its own pull list. Write off expired units with confirmation and undo.
Select live Shopify variants, including products without SKUs, then record lot receipts, expiry dates and storage references. Review eligible stock in expiry order, hold lots, record partial manual order-reference assignments, and keep linked correction history. Export a private CSV ledger. LotProof does not change Shopify inventory or orders.
