Inventory reorder alerts

Reordering stock is a calculation most stores redo by hand every week. Someone exports sales from Shopify, checks on-hand counts in NetSuite, guesses at how fast each item is selling, and keeps the running math in a Google Sheets tab that only they understand. Lead times, in-transit units sitting in ShipStation, and seasonal swings all change the answer, so the spreadsheet is out of date almost as soon as it is saved. When the estimate is wrong the store either stocks out of a bestseller or ties up cash in shelves of the wrong product. The work is repetitive and easy to describe, yet it rarely gets automated because it lives across tools that were never connected.

You describe the reorder logic you want in plain language, and Ceven builds a workflow that watches stock the way you would. It pulls sales velocity and current levels from Shopify and NetSuite, factors in units already in motion through ShipStation, and can keep the working numbers in a Google Sheets tab your team already trusts. AI steps compare each product against its threshold and lead time, then draft a reorder proposal that lists what to buy, how much, and why the number came out that way. When something crosses the line the workflow posts a clear alert to Slack so the buyer sees it in the moment rather than at the next spreadsheet review. Ceven runs around your store and ERP rather than becoming the inventory of record, so the counts stay authoritative in the systems you already keep them in.

The reorder proposal is a draft, not an order. A person reviews the suggested quantities, adjusts anything that looks off, and approves or rejects each line before a purchase moves forward. Nothing money-moving leaves the workflow without that sign-off, which keeps an alert from ever turning into an unwanted commitment of cash. Once approved, the workflow records the decision in a full audit trail, so there is an exportable history of what was reordered, on whose approval, and against which numbers. That trail makes it straightforward to look back and see why a given purchase was made.

You can start free with no credit card. Connect Shopify, NetSuite, Google Sheets, ShipStation, and Slack, describe your reorder rules in plain language, and Ceven builds the workflow across its library of more than a thousand tools. The same shape works if you track stock somewhere else, since Ceven can read from and write to whatever your store already uses. What you get is a steady, reviewed reorder proposal instead of a spreadsheet only one person can run.
