Who it is for
It is aimed at retailers, ecommerce brands and wholesalers that buy stock for multiple sales channels or locations. A team with recurring stockouts, excess stock or spreadsheet-based purchasing may get the clearest value if it already has dependable sales and inventory records to connect.
Inventory Planner does not need to be treated as the warehouse stock ledger. The vendor explicitly separates forecasting and buying decisions from the inventory system that tracks goods. Map the existing ecommerce, IMS or ERP source of truth before planning a rollout, especially when several warehouses or third-party locations feed the same catalog.
The work it supports
Core capabilities
The starting point is the demand forecast. The vendor describes models for seasonal, non-seasonal, retail and wholesale products. A buyer should check which sales period, product history and model each sample SKU uses, because a forecast is an estimate built from those inputs rather than a guarantee of future demand.
Planners can override a forecast by changing units or percentages on the edit screen, applying a bulk adjustment, or importing an override. That makes a promotion or known one-off event a planning input, but the team should document why it changed a forecast and compare the resulting suggestion with its original assumptions.
Stock coverage days can be tuned from SKU to supplier level. Replenishment then shows products and quantities to purchase, and the item details explain how its recommendation and forecast were calculated. Test a few fast, slow and seasonal products to see whether lead time and coverage settings produce sensible order dates and amounts.
For a constrained buying budget, the purchasing page offers modeled lost revenue, lost profit and sell-out timing to help prioritize a delayed order. Treat those as decision aids: validate the demand, margin and supplier assumptions against the business’s own records before moving a purchase ahead of another.
The vendor describes purchasing recommendations by warehouse, store, FBA or third-party logistics location and suggests transfers to balance stock. A practical test is one item that sells at two different locations: check whether location demand, on-hand stock and a transfer recommendation line up with the physical stock process.
Supplier settings can account for minimum order quantities. After reviewing replenishment suggestions, a user can select variants and create a purchase order from that screen. The help guide says this route automatically chooses the lowest-cost supplier for selected products, so the buyer should inspect supplier, lead time and terms before sending anything.
A buyer can also start a purchase order manually from Stock Orders and select its vendor, warehouse and products. The order editor includes status, expected arrival, payment and currency details, units of measurement and minimum order quantity. Compare a drafted order with the supplier’s real pack sizes, minimums and delivery terms.
For a combined warehouse, the destination that will receive the ordered goods can differ from the warehouse used to calculate replenishment. Check both fields on a sample order: an accurate quantity still creates operational trouble if it is addressed to the wrong store or warehouse.
The overview surfaces stock value, pending orders, items to replenish and overstock. Item details show sales and stock information as well as the forecast calculation. Use these views to explain a recommendation to a buyer or manager; do not infer actual stock accuracy from the planning display alone.
Understand the offer
Pricing and getting started
The public pricing page gives no fixed monthly figure. It asks the buyer to request pricing and says the quote depends on the volume of inventory managed. It also says unlimited users are included at no extra cost. Obtain a dated proposal for the actual SKU/location volume, connected systems and contract term before budgeting.
The vendor says guided implementation and training are required, covering system connections, migration, forecast configuration, testing and training. Ask who cleans historical sales and stock data, whether onboarding has a separate fee, how long the required work takes, and what ongoing support is in the selected agreement.
Look a little closer
Before you choose
A useful evaluation is a small, fictional or controlled sample: connect representative sales and stock data, inspect forecasts for a seasonal and a steady item, change one assumption, and compare suggested quantities at two locations. Then draft a purchase order and inspect supplier, minimum quantity and destination without sending it.
Confirm the exact connector, sync direction and timing for the buyer’s sales channel, IMS or ERP. Decide which system owns stock counts, receipts and supplier commitments, and validate that purchase-order updates appear where operations expect them. These integration and handoff details matter more than a general claim that a platform is connected.
