Inventory is one of the biggest expenses when it comes to running your business. Inventory Reports provide more insight into the amount of inventory you have on hand to help determine when to reorder more products. It also gives you greater visibility into the value or your inventory, so you can continuously monitor and reduce this expense. Purchase orders allow you to order, track and receive inventory from your suppliers right in Shopify.

Inventory Reports are now available to you.

Update: The rollout of Purchase Orders has been delayed until further notice.

Help center on inventory reports

A couple of weeks ago, we released our first version of purchase orders. So that means that you can order from your suppliers, track and then you can use your mobile phone to actually receive that inventory. That’s all live today.
We’ve also released a new set of inventory reports that include cost, so that you can understand the amount of inventory you have -- or the cost rather, the value -- of the inventory that you have on hand.
Often that can be a business’s largest active liability. So it’s really important that you know and understand what’s selling, what you need more of, and the total value of the money that you have invested in that inventory to date.
We’ve also included some new report around gift cards, so that you can also see the value of those products that you have coming in that you’ve sold, too. So those are some of the updates on inventory. There’ll be lots more to come here, but you know rest assured that we’re doing all that we can to improve the entire lifecycle of inventory management across Shopify.
