See the stockout two weeks before it happens

Email Carly weekly and she'll check Shopify inventory against velocity, flag anything under 14 days of cover, ping ops in #ops, and draft restock emails to suppliers — so stockouts stop being a 3am surprise.

Shopify Slack Gmail

What Carly does

1. 01 List all Shopify products with current stock and 30-day velocity
2. 02 Calculate days of cover per SKU — flag anything under 14
3. 03 Post the ranked flag list to #ops
4. 04 Draft restock emails to each SKU's primary supplier
5. 05 Flag any SKU without a supplier on record for your review

Stockouts stop being a surprise

You get the alert 2 weeks before the stockout, not 2 weeks after. Supplier emails are drafted. The reorder decision becomes a 30-second review — not a 3am panic.

Email this to Carly to kick it off.

Hey Carly,

Can you run our weekly low-stock check? Pull every Shopify product with current stock and 30-day sell-through, then flag anything under 14 days of cover.

Drop the ranked flag list in #ops in Slack, and for each flagged SKU draft a restock email to its primary supplier in Gmail (don't send — leave them in drafts for me).

If any SKU is missing a supplier on file, surface those separately so I can fill them in.

Thanks!
