Inventory Alerts & Reordering
Never run out of stock or over-order again with automated inventory monitoring, intelligent reorder triggers, and purchase order generation.
Stockouts lose sales. Overstock ties up cash. Manual inventory checks miss the sweet spot between the two. Our inventory alert and reordering automations monitor stock levels in real time across all your locations, warehouses, and sales channels, triggering intelligent alerts and automated reorder actions exactly when needed. The system connects directly to your inventory management platform, POS system, or ecommerce backend to provide a single source of truth for stock levels and movement.
We build monitoring workflows that poll your inventory data at configurable intervals — or receive real-time webhooks from platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, Square, or your custom inventory API. Each SKU has configurable alert thresholds: a warning level that notifies your purchasing team via Slack or email, a critical level that triggers an automated purchase order draft, and a zero-stock level that fires urgent alerts across multiple channels and optionally disables the product listing on your sales channels. Thresholds are dynamic — the system can adjust reorder points based on historical sales velocity, seasonal patterns, and lead time data.
Automated reordering goes beyond simple threshold triggers. When a SKU hits its reorder point, the system generates a purchase order with the recommended quantity based on economic order quantity (EOQ) calculations, supplier lead times, and demand forecasts. The PO is pre-populated with supplier details, pricing from your negotiated rate cards, and shipping instructions. For approved suppliers, the PO can be sent automatically via email or supplier portal API. For others, it's routed to your purchasing manager for review with a one-click approval workflow. Multi-supplier logic selects the optimal vendor based on price, lead time, and minimum order quantities.
Visibility and forecasting complete the system. Dashboards display real-time stock levels across all locations, items approaching reorder points, open purchase orders and expected delivery dates, and inventory valuation. Trend analysis shows stock movement patterns, identifying slow-moving items that should be discounted and fast-movers that need higher safety stock. We build alerts for inventory discrepancies — when physical counts don't match system records — and aging alerts for perishable or expiration-dated goods. Integration with your accounting system keeps inventory valuation current for financial reporting.
