Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureShopify tracks finished products. It does not track the silver wire, coffee beans, fabric or packaging you consume to make them, so makers keep it in a spreadsheet that drifts. Recipe Stock links each product variant to the materials it uses. When an order is paid, those materials come off stock automatically, at the exact quantity your recipe specifies. Decimals are supported, so 2.5 g is 2.5 g.
Decant shops, tea and spice merchants, roasters and refill stores sell the same product in several sizes cut from one bottle, sack or drum. Carboy keeps that bulk stock as one pool in ml, l, fl oz, g, kg, oz or lb and sets each size's stock in your store after every order, refund and cancellation.
