Does Stockie take into account incoming transfers or purchase orders?

Yes — Stockie can include incoming inventory (from purchase orders or transfers in Shopify) when evaluating which products are low in stock.

When this option is enabled, incoming quantities are added to your available inventory before Stockie determines whether a product should trigger a low stock alert.

How it works

By default, Stockie calculates low stock based on your available inventory only.

However, if you enable the Include incoming inventory option, Stockie will also count any stock that’s currently marked as incoming in Shopify — such as items on active purchase orders or transfers between locations.

This helps reduce unnecessary alerts for products that are already on the way.

Classic Mode

In Classic Mode, you can control this setting on a per-notification basis:

Open your notification in the Stockie app.
Click Manage products and thresholds.
Under Threshold settings, check or uncheck the box labeled: ✅ Include incoming inventory

📍 By default, this option is unchecked in Classic Mode.

When enabled, Stockie will add incoming quantities to your available stock before comparing them against your thresholds.

Smart Mode

In Smart Mode, the Include incoming inventory setting is enabled automatically by default.

You’ll find it on the right-hand side of the notification setup page under the Additional settings card.

This ensures Stockie’s forecasts and reorder recommendations account for all upcoming stock — giving you a more accurate picture of when to reorder.

Example

Let’s say you have:

10 units currently available, and
40 units incoming on a purchase order.

If your threshold (or reorder point) is 30, Stockie will treat your total available inventory as 50 units when determining whether that product is low in stock.

✅ Result: The product will not be treated as low in stock, because the combined available + incoming quantity (50) is above your threshold of 30.

If the setting were disabled, Stockie would only count the 10 available units — meaning the product would trigger a low stock alert.
