How it sells itself

StockKoala is an all-in-one inventory management app that automates your entire workflow and lets you watch your team progress through each task. The app learns from your sales history to forecast demand, tells you when to order, creates POs your team can work from, receives inventory at your warehouse, and auto-completes POs when everything arrives.

Effective inventory management is a strategic advantage to your brick and mortar retail business. Selling out of in-demand products can be harmful to your sales—but keeping too much inventory on hand can drain your resources. Leverage Stocky by Shopify to optimize your inventory decisions.

Key points
  • Barcode scanning with employee badge sign-in and low stock alerts
  • Purchase orders with PDF export, receiving workflow, and receipt uploads
  • Batch and expiry tracking with automatic FIFO deduction on fulfillment
  • Sales velocity forecasting with seasonal adjustments and reorder points
  • Create and manage purchase orders and communicate with suppliers.
  • Conduct stocktakes by counting or scanning stock on hand and make adjustments.
  • Use in-depth reporting to make good inventory decisions through stock analytics.
  • Review and receive incoming inventory in Shopify POS.
