About This Automation

Replenishment for recurring orders requires comparing live stock levels against upcoming shipment demand, then manually building purchase orders and adjusting schedules when supply falls short.

The automated version monitors stock and demand together, drafts purchase orders automatically, and updates affected shipment dates or customer notices the moment a delay is detected. This keeps inventory levels healthy and customers informed without manual cross-checking.

Key features
Monitors stock levels against upcoming shipment demand in real time
Flags items that fall below their reorder threshold automatically
Drafts purchase orders using existing supplier pricing
Adjusts affected order schedules when supplier lead time causes a delay
Notifies impacted customers as soon as a delay is confirmed
Logs completed reorders and posts a daily stock status summary

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Inventory Synctrigger

Every morning the platform pulls current stock levels for all SKUs directly.

2. Inventory & Reorder Runs

The automation cross-references stock against subscription ship dates and flags SKUs below their reorder threshold.

3. Draft PO

A purchase order is drafted automatically using the supplier pricing and lead times on file.

4. Send PO

Orders under the approval threshold are sent straight to the supplier without waiting on a person.

5. Purchasing Coordinator Reviews PO

Orders above the threshold are routed to the purchasing coordinator to review and edit before sending.

6. Subscription Delay Communicator Runs

Once the supplier lead time is confirmed, the automation checks it against upcoming subscription ship dates and updates if a delay will hit a customer order.

7. Log Reorder

The confirmed order and any date changes are written to the shared reorder tracking sheet.

8. Post Stock Digest

A summary of the day's reorders and any flagged delays is posted to the team's channel.
