Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureCreate purchase orders and email suppliers a PDF. When stock arrives, split freight, duty and fees by quantity, value or weight, and cost per item in Shopify is updated with that landed cost. Received it with Shopify's own purchase orders? Add the freight to that shipment without receiving twice. Print PDF price labels. Free covers purchase orders, receiving and labels at one location; Core writes the landed cost.
Review supplier purchase drafts using your Shopify catalogue. Confirm suppliers, unit costs and case sizes, then see whole-case quantities, extra stock and merchandise costs. Check supplier minimums and an optional budget before exporting a separate CSV for each supplier. Drafts only: no orders are sent and your Shopify catalogue stays unchanged.
