Inventory that runs itself in the background.

Create products from the SalesVu.com portal, then choose how each one is tracked under Inventory Setting: by unit (including custom units like 'bottles' or 'cases'), by weight, or not tracked at all (for services and digital goods). The portal exposes the full set of options; the POS app is best for quick add-ons.

Sellable products appear on POS, kiosk and eCommerce and can be sold directly. Non-sellable products are components used inside sellable products — for example, a ketchup bottle used as an ingredient in a meal — so inventory of parts is tracked accurately without cluttering the menu.

Yes. Create modifier groups (Sizes, Colors), add modifier items (Small, Medium, Large), and assign them to products. Modifiers can deduct specific quantities or variant stock when selected at point of sale.

On a sellable product, open Select Component and add the non-sellable components plus the quantity used per unit. When the sellable item sells, SalesVu automatically deducts each component from on-hand inventory.

Yes. Create a vendor under the Inventory tab, then in the Vendor tab choose Assign Products and select categories or individual items. Vendor assignment powers purchase orders, vendor revenue share reports, and the PO Lead Time Analyst.

A Purchase Order is a formal document to a vendor specifying products, quantities and prices. POs in SalesVu live in three states — Draft (editable), Open (sent and partially receivable) and Closed (fully received) — created from the Purchase Orders tab and updated against inventory automatically when you receive them.

Under Manage Inventory you set Threshold Quantity (the minimum stock level that triggers a PO), Max Stock Days (how many days of inventory to keep on hand), Storage Capacity (the cap so you don't over-buy) and Lead Time. The Smart PO Automater uses those settings plus real sales velocity to draft purchase orders automatically; you approve and send.

Open the PO and receive fully or partially depending on what actually arrived. Received quantities are automatically added to inventory at the right storage area and location.

Count sheets are created in the SalesVu.com portal and synced instantly to the POS app. Staff open the count sheet on the iPad, count by product or by storage area, and submit — the system reconciles against expected on-hand and updates inventory.

Yes. Set a Threshold quantity per SKU. When inventory drops below that level, SalesVu raises a low-stock signal — and, with Smart PO Automater enabled, drafts the replenishment PO for you.

The Out of Stock Setting controls behavior independently for eCommerce, POS and kiosk. Choose to show an Out of Stock banner (allowing or restricting sale) or hide the product from the channel entirely until it's restocked.

Yes. Enable multiple storage areas, define them, and assign products. Stock is tracked per area, counts can run per area, and replenishment decisions can use area-level visibility.

Yes. Inventory Transfers move stock between locations with full audit trail. You can also automate orders and POs that are triggered during transfers so the receiving location's stock stays accurate.

Yes. Use customizable fields on individually identifiable items — bicycles, laptops, machinery, equipment — to capture serial numbers, physical location, maintenance dates and any other attributes you want to report on later.

Yes. Create custom PO fields (e.g., 'Shipment Method', 'Internal Order #'), edit and reorder them as your process changes, and search POs by those fields later. Custom fields make procurement workflows match your business, not the other way around.

Use the Inventory Movements report for the audit trail, the All-in-One Sales & Profitability Master Report for revenue with COGS subtracted, and the COGS report for cost-of-goods specifically. Inventory Value over Time tracks the dollar value of what's on the shelf.

Days on Hand projects how many days of inventory remain for each SKU at current sales velocity — so you know which items will stock out before they do. It feeds the Smart PO Automater and is the metric most operators check first on Monday.

AI Background Agents analyze your inventory and sales data without you having to ask. Once you enable them from the dashboard, each agent runs automatically every Monday on the previous week's data, posting results to the Reports view with a red-dot indicator. You can also trigger any agent on-demand with Run Now and results return within 15 minutes.

Smart PO Automater (drafts POs), PO Lead Time Analyst (vendor reliability), Stock Shrinkage Analyst (unexplained loss), Profit Margin Analyst (margin erosion), Promotion Opportunity Analyst (slow movers), Cross-sales Analyst (real bundle behavior) and Theft Detection Analyst (anomaly review). Listing Enrichment and Marketplace Sync agents extend the same data to online discoverability.

Generate barcode labels from the portal for any product or batch — useful when receiving POs, organizing storage areas, and accelerating count sheets at scan-speed on the POS.

Yes. Every core inventory report — movements, current stock, inventory value, All-in-One Profitability, COGS, Purchase Order Export — exports for use in your accounting system, BI tool or warehouse.

For high-value goods (bikes, instruments, equipment), every unit is tracked individually with serial number, location, maintenance dates and custom fields. Owners can serve a customer's warranty claim or insurance request in seconds instead of digging through paper.

Set a spend cap per period per category or vendor; the Smart PO Automater respects it when drafting orders. Cash flow stops getting blown up by a buyer 'just topping off' inventory.

Add fields like Shipment Method, Internal PO Number, Buyer Name or Container ID, and search POs by them later. Your procurement workflow fits your business, not the other way around.

Capture vendor discounts, freight, duty and miscellaneous fees right on the PO so landed cost is correct from receipt forward. COGS and margin reports actually reflect what the goods cost you to land.

Mark POs as Unpaid, Partially Paid or Paid so accounts payable knows what's open. Eliminates the weekly 'is this PO paid?' email loop between buyers and AP.

Configure Net 30, Net 60, COD, prepaid etc. per vendor so payment due dates are computed automatically. Owners avoid late-payment fees and missed early-pay discounts.

Store the vendor's own SKU / style number alongside yours during product creation. Re-orders, receiving and vendor disputes use their language and yours without manual translation.

Customize which columns show in the PO list and the View/Adjust Inventory report. Buyers, managers and accountants each see the version of the data that matters to them.

Find every PO that contained a specific item or category in seconds. Investigating a recall, vendor issue or price-change history stops being a half-day exercise.

Adjust on-hand quantities with a reason code (shrinkage, breakage, donation, found stock) directly from the portal. Audit trail is preserved so finance can reconcile without surprises.

If a SKU comes in without a barcode, SalesVu generates one and it prints to labels automatically. New product launches stop being held up by 'we need barcodes'.

Generate and print SKU and price labels on standard or Zebra label printers, including from your PC. Receiving and shelving stop being a bottleneck for the new buy.

Audit every change — sales, receivings, transfers, counts, adjustments — per SKU and location. Shrinkage and discrepancies get traced to a root cause instead of being written off.

Reports per-SKU, per-category and per-location margin from real landed cost. The Profit Margin Analyst AI agent uses it; humans use it to know what to drop, promote or reprice.

Tracks the dollar value sitting on your shelves over time. Owners and lenders get one number that quantifies how much cash is locked in stock at any moment.

Reports every transfer between locations with quantities, who sent, who received and any discrepancy. Multi-location operators close the 'where did our stock go?' loop.

Bring product, vendor and stock data in from CSV during onboarding or migration. You don't lose months rebuilding a catalog when you switch from a legacy system.

Channel-by-channel control: hide a product entirely when out of stock, or show it with an Out of Stock label that may still allow backorder. You can prevent disappointing sales online while leaving in-store walk-ins informed.

Consolidate near-duplicate modifier groups (e.g., 'Size' and 'Sizes') into one clean group. Modifier sprawl gets cleaned up without breaking historical reporting.

Track a vendor unit (a case of 24) separately from a sellable unit (a single bottle), with automatic deduction on sale. Beverage, beauty and any case-pack business gets accurate on-hand without doing math at the bar.

Mark an item to ring at any cashier-entered price (custom services, deli weight, made-to-order). You don't need 50 menu buttons for every possible price.

Temporarily hide an item or whole category from POS, kiosk and eCommerce without deleting it. A seasonal menu or a sold-out collection comes back with its data intact.
