Does Stackably do inventory management? Yes — stock tracking, receiving, stocktakes, lots and expiry, costing, reorder forecasts and labels

The Inventory Hub tracks stock per product and variant, with receiving, cost layers, stocktakes, waste, lots and expiry, costing reports, reorder forecasts, barcode labels and kits built from a bill of materials.

Yes. Inventory management is built into Shop+ and shared by the register and the online store, so a sale anywhere updates stock everywhere.

What inventory management includes

  • Tracking per product and per variant (each size and colour has its own SKU and count), with products pulled off sale at zero.

  • Receiving stock and cost layers, and a Costing report with FIFO, LIFO and weighted-average unit costs and totals.

  • Stocktakes and exact-count adjustments with a reason, plus waste logging.

  • Lots and expiry dates on the Expiring tab for food, supplements and anything perishable.

  • Purchasing forecast and reorder suggestions based on demand.

  • Barcodes and labels. Add products by UPC with auto-filled details, scan at checkout with a handheld or countertop scanner, and print QR or barcode labels from templates.

  • Kits, bundles and bills of materials. Build finished items from components, with yield, labour and auto-deduct, and sell gift sets and multi-packs whose stock comes from the components.

  • Filters, columns and CSV export on the inventory table.

  • Product import. A self-serve CSV import in Shop+ for simple products, and a full catalog import done by our team during setup that includes variants with their SKUs and stock, modifier groups and opening stock counts, so an existing catalog does not have to be re-entered by hand.

  • Vendors as a contact type, so supplier details live next to the products they supply.
