We're happy to introduce a new flow that
helps you buy products from your vendors based on their price and inventory availability
.Until now, Goflow’s Inventory Forecasting helped you find the best vendor—but only when using the Goflow inventory forecast.
With
Inventory Sourcing
, you can now upload or enter your own list of products and quantities
, then instantly see each vendor’s price and availability. Choose the vendor you want for each product and place all your purchase orders in one smooth flow
.
Once you're happy with your selections, click
Review Purchase Orders
to see a summary of all your purchase orders by vendor
. From there, you can review each purchase order individually.
When you're ready, simply
place the purchase order and submit it directly to your vendor
, all within the same flow!
For warehouses using inventory locations, which track each unit by its exact location, you can now enable
Use Picking Cart Locations
.This will create a temporary inventory location for each Pick List.
As products are picked off the self
, they are immediately moved from their Storage location to the Cart location
.This gives you tighter control over your inventory, with
a real-time view of where your inventory is
in your warehouse at all times.
As soon as products are picked off the shelf,
a new Move is automatically created
for this Pick List. As additional products are picked, they are all added to the same Move
:
These temporary locations are
named after the Pick List
for easy identification. Their Location Type
is also set to Cart
, making them easy to spot.At the end of the day, warehouse managers can quickly identify
stranded inventory
on the carts by filtering locations
by Cart
and and by Has Inventory
:
You can now instruct Goflow to only import certain Shopify orders, based on specific Shopify tags:
For warehouses using inventory locations, which track each unit by its exact location, there's now a new report that
shows your inventory for each product in each location
.Like all reports in Goflow, this new report features
customizable columns and filters
, and offers a full export of on hand inventory by location
:
Building on top of Goflow's existing Inventory Allocation settings, you can now enable Advanced Inventory Allocation, which
gives you fine-tuned control over each individual warehouse and vendor
:
With Advanced Inventory Allocation, you can
create sets of inventory "sources", which can each have their own settings
:
For channels that require a Lead Time
, you can of course set a different lead time for each inventory source, respectively.For vendors
, you can fine-tune the Lead Time per vendor, based on the vendor's Lead Time for this product. You can even add an additional Base Lead Time, to account for the time it takes your warehouse to ship the orders
:
When a product is available from multiple inventory sources, they
may each have a different lead time
. You can define exactly how to handle
such a discrepancy:
And of course, all of this
precision control can also be tweaked for each individual listing
, respectively.For Extensiv and Flexport warehouses, your 3PL's inventory counts are synced to Goflow as
Reported Inventory
.You can now
choose which inventory quantities to use
when feeding inventory
to your channels and when routing orders to your 3PL
for fulfillment:
- Supports 6 different inventory reports: Counts, Aging, Values, Batches, History by product/date
- Customize the report with powerful filters
- Choose the exact columns and groupingsfor your report
- Generate up to 1,000,000 (!) recordsper report
- The reports endpoints have generous quota limits, with an endpoint to get real-time status details of these limits per report
- Choose whether to generate the report in JSON, CSV or even JSONL, so that you can process the report on your end efficiently
Use these reports to easily
sync your inventory levels to any external systems
you may have, or even to a given channel not yet supported by Goflow.
The new Listing Attributes Updates import allows you to update multiple listings in bulk from a CSV file, with precision:
• Only
update the specific attributes
you wish to change, without affecting other attributes
.• Updates are validated immediately, so that you
don't have to wait for the channel
to reject them.• Get detailed,
clear validation messages
.• Choose to
save updates in Goflow even when invalid
. These listings will be placed In Review
with clear validation messages, letting you fix them later when you get to it.
Creating the template
for your listing attribute updates could not be easier!
Select a store, select your listing category, and
you're presented with all attributes available for that category
, nicely marked as required/optional. Select whichever attributes your want to update, and click on Download CSV Template
.Fill in your listings with their attributes, and upload it here. All of your listings will be updated in Goflow, and their
updates will automatically be pushed up to the channel
.
In addition to the CSV template, you can also
Download Attribute Details
, which includes all the details about your selected attributes:• Whether the
attribute is required
•
What type the attribute expects
(number, text, yes/no, etc.)•
Choices
: for attributes that are restricted to a specific list of options, this file includes the list of available choices
To check out this new import, click on
Import Listing Attribute Updates
in the Import menu of the main listings page.This import is currently available for
Target+
, Walmart
and Macy's
; with more channels in the pipeline!
We invested a ton of effort to make this the smoothest possible experience. Use it and enjoy it. We welcome your feedback!
If you allocate inventory to your stores from multiple warehouses, the available inventory quantity sent to the store is the total of all warehouses. If one warehouse has negative inventory, that will be deducted from the other warehouse's inventory.
Did you ever run into a situation where
one of your warehouses is better managed than the other, and you don't want to negative inventory from one warehouse to affect the inventory in another warehouse?
Well, now you can
control this directly
from within the Inventory Allocation
settings:
