How it sells itself

Smart Reorder Assistant reads your stock levels and recent sales, then shows which products will run out before a new delivery could arrive and how many units to order. Set one lead time for your store, or different ones per vendor or product. A home dashboard brings together your reorder list, best sellers with sales trends, and slow movers that show how much money is tied up in stock that is not selling.

Foreshelf forecasts demand from your sales history and tells you what to reorder, how much, and when — with the reasoning shown: "Sells 5/day, 12 days left, 14-day lead time → reorder 90 now." Forecasts adjust for trend and seasonality. Reorder by supplier, raise purchase orders, receive by barcode, get email or Slack alerts, and track dead stock, turnover and sell-through.

Key points
  • Reorder list ranked by days of stock left, with suggested order quantities
  • Lead times for your whole store, each vendor or a single product
  • Best sellers with 30-day revenue, units and trend vs the previous month
  • Slow movers report showing stock that is not selling and its value
  • Never run out — know what to reorder and when, before you lose the sale.
  • Never overstock — spot slow movers and dead stock tying up your cash.
  • Always explained — every number shows its reasoning in plain English.
