See every featureLosing money on products that sit unsold for months? IdleStock reads your catalog and recent orders and lists every product with stock but no sales in your chosen window (30 or 60 days): your dead stock, slow-moving and aging inventory. It shows how much cash is tied up in that excess stock and gives each item a clear next step: discount, bundle or remove. The first scan starts on its own after install.
