Hi,

Any sellers out there managing the re-ordering of over 1000 SKU's? Are there any tools that can help me with this? If so, can these tools also know when to re-order to take advantage of supplier discounts?

Thanks!

Our business moved entirely to dropship this year, but a couple of years back we looked at Fishbowl Inventory and went out to visit another company to learn how they had integrated it into their eComm platform (Magento), which we moved to Magento this year. It looked like it could handle large inventory and probably complicated calculations like discounts.

What exactly do you want to do? Simply select the supplier with the lowest price which has been manually uploaded?

How are your supplier discounts calculated?

Predict optimal inventory levels?

Full on order management as well?

All of the above
Is there is system/tool out there where as a seller I can know when to order or when to hold off on ordering to take advantage of supplier discounts? This system will also take into account my sales velocity and know how much inventory I should hold.
