Low-stock alerts

See what's running low before it sells out anywhere.

Set a low-stock level for each product, and managemate flags every SKU that has dropped to or below it. One stock figure covers all your marketplaces, so you catch a shortfall once instead of finding out three times.

When you sell the same SKU on Meesho, Flipkart and Amazon, the dangerous moment is the one nobody is watching: stock quietly falls while orders keep coming on every channel. managemate keeps one on-hand quantity per product, so low-stock alerts watch the real pool that feeds all three marketplaces, not a separate count per seller panel that you'd have to mentally add up.

It works on a number you set. Each product can have a low-stock threshold; when its on-hand quantity reaches or goes below that number, the product shows up in your low-stock view. A SKU with no threshold set is simply not flagged, so you decide which items are worth watching and at what level. Out of stock is included too: a product sitting at zero is, by definition, at or below any threshold you've set.

The on-hand figure these alerts read is the same one your receipts, stock adjustments and orders all move through the stock ledger. So the moment an order or an adjustment pushes a product down to its threshold, it's eligible to appear in the low-stock list the next time you look, with no separate re-counting step on your side.

What you get

Built into low-stock alerts

A threshold per SKU, not one rule for everything

Set a different low-stock level on each product. A fast-moving item can warn you at 50 units while a slow one waits until 5, because you set the number that matches how each SKU actually sells.

One stock pool, all marketplaces

The alert reads a single on-hand quantity per product, the same figure behind your Meesho, Flipkart and Amazon listings. You see one shortfall to act on instead of reconciling counts across separate seller panels.

A filtered low-stock view on demand

Open your stock list and filter to just the products at or below their threshold. It's a focused worklist of what needs reordering, not a wall of every SKU you stock.

Out of stock is caught, not hidden

A product at zero on-hand is always at or below its threshold, so anything sold out shows up in the same low-stock view alongside the items that are merely getting close.

Reads the live ledger figure

The on-hand quantity behind each alert is updated by your receipts, stock adjustments and orders through the same stock ledger, so the list reflects current levels rather than a stale snapshot.

Visible to the right people

Low-stock checking sits behind the inventory permission, so an Inventory Manager can work the list while access stays governed by each person's role and overrides.

How it works

From setup to everyday use

  1. 01

    Set a threshold on the products that matter

    On each product, enter the low-stock level you want to watch. Leave it blank on SKUs you don't need to track, and they stay out of the alert view.

  2. 02

    managemate compares it to live on-hand stock

    As receipts, adjustments and orders move stock through the ledger, managemate checks each product's on-hand quantity against its threshold.

  3. 03

    Filter your stock list to what's low

    Switch on the low-stock filter to see only the products at or below their threshold, including anything that has hit zero. That's your reorder shortlist.

  4. 04

    Restock and the item clears the list

    Record a receipt for the stock you bring in. On-hand goes back above the threshold and the product drops out of the low-stock view on its own.

Where it helps

In the day-to-day

For a seller running the same SKU on all three marketplaces

Demand on Meesho, Flipkart and Amazon draws from one pool, so you can't eyeball any single panel and trust it. A threshold on the shared on-hand quantity tells you the SKU is low overall, before one channel oversells what the others have already eaten into.

For an Inventory Manager handling reorders

Instead of scanning the whole catalog, open the low-stock filter and you have the day's reorder list in front of you: every SKU at or below its level, plus anything already at zero. Your role grants the inventory access to do this without touching wallet or order settings.

For a shop owner deciding what to watch

You don't have to set a threshold on everything. Put levels on the products where a stockout costs you sales, leave the long tail blank, and the alert view stays short and worth checking.

Questions

Low-stock alerts, answered

Does managemate email or message me when a product runs low?

Not at this stage. Low-stock alerts are an in-app view: you filter your stock list to the products at or below their threshold whenever you check. The product is built alongside its sellers, so notification preferences are the kind of thing that evolves with feedback.

Is the threshold the same for every product?

No. You set a low-stock threshold on each product individually, so a high-volume SKU and a slow one can warn you at completely different levels. Products you leave without a threshold are not flagged at all.

Does the alert look at stock per marketplace or in total?

In total. managemate keeps one on-hand quantity per product that all your Meesho, Flipkart and Amazon selling draws from, and the threshold is checked against that single figure.

Are out-of-stock products included in low-stock alerts?

Yes. A product at zero on-hand is at or below any threshold you've set, so it appears in the same low-stock view as the items that are getting close but not yet gone.

How does on-hand stock get updated so the alert stays accurate?

Your stock receipts, stock adjustments and orders all move quantity through one stock ledger, and the per-product on-hand quantity is updated from it. The low-stock check reads that figure, so the list reflects your current position.

Who on my team can use low-stock alerts?

Anyone whose role or per-person overrides include inventory access, such as an Admin or Inventory Manager. Access is governed the same way as the rest of your inventory screens.
