SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Merchants lose sales and disrupt operations when inventory runs out or when suppliers are overwhelmed by one-email-per-SKU notifications; this Skill centralizes monitoring and notification so teams reorder the right items before stockouts occur.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated monitoring: Periodic background checks compare available stock (onHand minus reserved) against per-variant, per-location reorder configurations.
  • Dynamic reorder points: Optionally compute demand-driven reorder points from recent sales velocity and supplier lead time, including a safety buffer.
  • Consolidated notifications & workflows: Group low-stock items by supplier for single batched emails, send merchant summaries, and expose admin APIs to acknowledge and resolve alerts.
  • Use case: Before a holiday weekend, the job detects multiple SKUs supplied by the same vendor and sends one consolidated reorder email to the supplier while opening unresolved alerts in the merchant dashboard for operations to review.

Quick Start

Run the background stock check to identify variants below their reorder points and send consolidated supplier and merchant alerts.
