Great to see the new shipstation inventory management solution! We were initially excited because it seemed to be able to replace stitchlabs. If shipstation was able to send stock counts to selling channels, it would be amazing! We, along with other stitch users I'm sure, would be happy to pay a higher premium for your services.

The inventory option is great in shipstation but we need the inventory totals to be updated to our selling channels. Our main selling channels right now are CS-Cart and Amazon. It doesn't make any sense to have to manually update our stores from the totals in shipstation. If this feature could be added it would be amazing, especially since we're looking for a new inventory management system at the moment.

We need this as well. Especially to CS-cart and Amazon.

I would pay double if you can push inventory to WooCommerce. I hate having to use multiple services and sometimes it doesn't even work out correctly. Please PUSH and PULL inventory with WooCommerce!!

We LOVE Ship station but are leaving because it doesn't have that feature. Please add it soon!

  • August 12, 2016
Absolutely. This is a critical piece of the puzzle for us. Really the last piece for us in regards to Shipstation. We use multiple WooCommerce channels and would love to PUSH and PULL inventory across multiple warehouses.

ShipStation is SO darn close to being a serious competitor (and better in my view) to all the high priced inventory app out there. Just adding that channel update of stock and pricing would make it the giant killer. Of course you'd upset your inventory management partners, but they couldn't walk away without upsetting their customers. I suspect you guys are sitting on the fence on this. But you are also sitting on a gold mine.

We need this, and with product option variants stock levels.

The SkuVault Inventory level display in order view in ShipStation is great! It would be helpful to be able to up the API limit however - currently after you view 5 different orders in a row, it errors out for a certain amount of time before it will start displaying inventory levels again. We use this for marking orders as OOS, etc within ShipStation and it would be extremely helpful to have a higher limit on viewing those results. Also being able to filter and sort by those values, and see them in a master product list from within ShipStation, would be phenomenal too

I'll echo what others say here- we are being forced *away* from Shipstation for the lack of this piece

Indeed.. we are currently evaluating ecomdash as their inventory management is exactly what we need... but there shipping software sucks!!! SS is awesome, fix this shortcoming.

To help with inventory planning we would like to see how much stock is in FBA and how much is in our warehouse in one page (the products: Inventory page). Please vote so this feature gets added. It should be easy, since we can see how much stock is in FBA in individual orders, so SS already has that info. Regards! ShipsStation #1 fans!

Import inventory from Magento the same as Shopify

Hi Shipstation team, you have the framework for this line of business, and missing a large opportunity by not implementing it, based politics ties with your partners. Don't forget that most of your partner have this shipping feature, but not as deep and devlopped as your software is, but until when ... It'll be great to see Shipstation going towards multi channel, WMS and deeper analytics and forecast tools. Keep up the good work.

This element is what ShipStation is missing for us; please put multi-channel inventory management at the top of the list of features to offer.

  • September 17, 2017
Yes PLEASE add this in. We're getting calls from shippingeasy sales reps trying to poach our company because they claim to have this feature built in to their software already. Inventory management is almost useless if the sales channels aren't updated/synchronized with shipstation. We are looking for a solution where only one website/inventory count can be updated and have those updates propagated instead of having to update each channel manually.

i think a simple zapier app that links inventory to shopify would be awesome

  • October 16, 2017
Yes, we have the same concern. You know we just want to have an inventory management in vone software, not part of it. Shipstation should be a good choice if the function can be optimized. Take an example: every time, we have some product replenished, for example, 1000pcs, and we dispached 500 to FBA, and kept 500 on our own hands. Presently, shipstation only record and deducted the qty for any order fulfilled in shipstation, but FBA

We know shipstation has amazing function on inventory management, but not good enough. Presently, it is allowed to set up different locations for our warehouses, which is really great. So you have different qty in different warehouse, and combined to have a total quantity record. But question comes, shipstaton can only record and deducted the qty for each order only fulfilled through shipstation, it cannot record the changes on FBA inventory. After we chat with shipstation representative, we are noticed that we should only record the inventory which is on our hand. The FBA inventory looks meanless even we put into inventory in shipstation. The fact is, shipstation has the function to look into each item's inventory level in FBA if we goes to specific order's detailed page. So we believe shipstation has the power to update FBA whole inventory synchronously. Besides, we just want a place or software to help us manage our whole inventory, not only part of it. If shipstation can have FBA inventory record and updated, then we will have a full picture finally. Please to have this useful function, and we will be very joyful to work on shipstation.

Ability to Sync Inventory with WooCommerce, thanks!

  • November 22, 2017
This would be super helpful! We could track our inventory across multiple platforms and have it update automatically. It would be done in house, so we dont need a whole new third party platform + integration to do one task.

  • November 28, 2017
Ability to sync with some of the most used ecommerce sales channels would be fantastic! (Magento, Shopify, Woocommerce). Thanks

  • December 13, 2017
I'm not sure what the new solution the original poster is referring to, but I want to emphasize how incredible a multi channel solution would be for us! We have multiple locations and when someone orders online, parts of their order usually come from many different locations. Being able to streamline inventory requests at each location would save us a lot of time!

  • February 20, 2018
I want to add emphasis to this request that it would set ShipStation apart from it's competitors. We greatly need the option to send inventory numbers from SS to our selling channels. PLEASE MAKE THIS POSSIBLE!!

Being able to push inventory directly from SS to Shopify without having to go through another connection would solve a huge problem for me.

  • April 3, 2018
Ability to sync with BigCommerce would be such a big help. I've got enough to keep up with without having to update inventory in ShipStation and in BC.
