How to Set Up Replenishment NotificationsUpdated 9 months ago

ShipHero makes it easy for you to identify when a Purchase Order needs to be created through Replenishment Notifications.  

Definitions

  • Reorder Level
    • The 'Available' value of a SKU must reach to trigger a reorder.  Setting this to 0 will prevent a SKU from automatically being added to a Purchase Order.
  • Reorder Amount
    • The number that should be reordered when an SKU reaches the Reorder Level. 

How to Set Up a Replenishment Notification 

Your Account Manager will need to assist with this first part of the process where they will enable the notifications: 

  • In Ship Hero, your Account Manager will go to My Account > Settings > Notifications
  • Check the "Active" box for Low Stock
  • They will then choose the day and time that you want to be notified
  • Lastly, they will add the email address you want the notification sent to:

 

How to Order Ahead

The Reorder Level can be specified in Product Page within the Product Settings. 

By setting a reorder amount, you will be notified when a product goes below this amount of units.  

  • Go to Ship Hero > Products. You will then Choose the product > Settings (small pencil on the right hand in the left box)
  • Scroll down to the box "Reorder Level" and set the amount to the minimum # of units you want to have before receiving an alert to add the product to a Purchase Order.
    • If the Reorder Level is higher than the "Reorder Amount + Available," the system will use the Reorder Level as the number of items in the Purchase Order.
    • If the Reorder Level is lower than the "Reorder Amount + Available," the system will use the Reorder Amount as the number of items in the Purchase Order.
