How it sells itself

When an order is refunded or cancelled, the restock step is sometimes missed, and your counts drift low while stock you have can't sell. CountHound watches every refund and cancellation, restocks what was missed automatically, and records each correction with its reason and the counts before and after. A nightly reconciliation checks every product for unexplained changes.

It syncs your products and sales, ranks what needs reordering by urgency, and turns the plan into supplier purchase orders you can edit, email, or download as a PDF. When boxes arrive, receive them fully or partially and stock is written back to Shopify automatically. Import your Stocky export in one click to restore suppliers, costs, and PO history. Works for any store that reorders from suppliers.

Key points
  • Corrects inventory that wasn't restored after a refund or cancellation
  • Logs every check, including clean ones, so the work is visible and auditable
  • Nightly check flags unexplained inventory changes for your review
  • Emails you the moment a correction happens, and a weekly summary of all activity
  • Urgency-ranked reorder suggestions built from your real sales velocity
  • Full purchase order lifecycle: draft, email or PDF, then receive into stock
  • One-click Stocky import: suppliers, costs, and PO history restored
  • Partial receiving with barcode scanner support and multi-location stock
