Overview
Below are the different functions within Orderbot that allow you to keep your inventory up to date. You can also use purchase orders to receive inventory or import inventory data using an Excel file. See our training videos for more information.
Note: If you don't see any of these options in your menu, please check with your admin user. They may need to grant you access permissions.
Instructions

- Select other filters such as warehouse, vendor, product name, or SKU.
- Enter your inventory count under the Count QTY column.
