How to Track Retail Order Inventory and Stock Levels
If you sell retail products like soap, lint rollers, or other items, CleanCloud’s inventory tracking feature helps you monitor stock levels and receive alerts when inventory is running low. This ensures you never run out of essential products.
How to Activate Stock Tracking for a Product
Go to Settings → Products.
Click on the Inventory tab.
Click the Add Product button.
Select the product you want to track.
Enter the current stock level and the low-stock threshold (to receive alerts when stock runs low).
If applicable, enter the barcode number for scanning purposes.
Click Submit to save your changes.
How Stock Tracking Works
1. Email Alerts
When stock drops below the set threshold, CleanCloud automatically sends an email notification to the admin email address.
Reminder emails are sent every two days until stock is replenished above the threshold.
2. Adding More Stock
Click the Add Stock button next to the product to update stock levels.
3. Viewing Stock Activity
Click the Activity button for a product to view its stock history, including additions and usage over time.
Barcode Scanning to Add Products to Orders
To scan retail product barcodes and add them directly to orders:
Go to Settings → Hardware → Barcode Scanner.
Enable the Use Barcode Scanner also with Inventory Products setting.
Click Update to save your changes.
