Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSelling electronics, tools or equipment means customers ask about warranties, returns and recalls by serial number. Serialwise records the serial of every unit: scan or type it when you pack the order, or fill it from serials received into stock. Each serial is saved on the Shopify order, ready for packing slips. Search any serial to see its order, sale date and warranty end.
Shelfwise tells you which products to reorder, when, and how many. It looks at your recent sales, the stock you have left and how long each supplier takes to deliver, then ranks your products from most to least urgent, with a plain-English reason for every line. Send each supplier's order by download, email or WhatsApp, tick it once you have ordered, and follow it from in progress to completed.
