Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureFlowStock keeps your inventory in sync with your suppliers. Every automation gets its own email address. Give it to your supplier, and each stock file they send is processed automatically: FlowStock reads SKUs and quantities from XML, CSV, or Excel feeds and updates inventory at the location you choose.
Every supplier sends stock data differently — messy spreadsheets, odd layouts, hours of cleanup. Stockfile fixes that. Drop in any supplier file (CSV, Excel, XML) and it reads the format automatically — no templates, no column mapping. See every change in a clear before-and-after review, then apply with one click. Made a mistake? Undo the entire sync instantly.
- Give each supplier a unique email address that receives and syncs stock feeds
- Import XML, CSV, and Excel feeds, or fetch stock files from a Dropbox link
- Match feed SKUs to variants and update quantities at the location you choose
- Update prices, barcodes, tags, status, and metafields in the same sync
- Reads any supplier file — CSV, Excel or XML — automatically. No column mapping.
- Review every change before it applies. Nothing touches your store silently.
- Undo any sync instantly — your store goes back exactly as it was.
- Discontinued items and large changes are flagged for review automatically.
