How to Export Your Stocky Data Before the August 31 Shutdown (Checklist)

Export two things before August 31, 2026: your products and stock levels from Shopify admin (Products → Export → CSV), and your purchase-order history from Stocky (Purchase Orders → Export All). One thing has no export button at all — your supplier records — so copy those into a spreadsheet by hand while you can still open Stocky.

Stocky was removed from the Shopify App Store on February 2, 2026, and stops working entirely on August 31, 2026. If your purchasing, receiving, or supplier records live in Stocky, this is the checklist for getting your data out cleanly — including the one dataset that has no export button at all.

What to export, in priority order#

1. Products and stock levels — from Shopify admin (not Stocky)

Your product catalog and current quantities belong to Shopify, not Stocky, so this export survives no matter what: Shopify admin → Products → Export → "All products" as CSV. The file includes Variant SKU, inventory quantity, price, barcode, cost per item, and vendor name per row — everything an inventory tool needs to rebuild your catalog. This is the single most important file; do it today, it takes two minutes.

2. Purchase-order history — from Stocky itself

Your PO history exists only inside Stocky: Stocky → Purchase Orders → Export All. This CSV is your record of what you ordered, from whom, at what cost. Even if your next tool can't import it directly, you want this file in your records — it's your cost history and your proof of supplier pricing.

3. Stocktake and adjustment history

If you ran stocktakes or manual adjustments in Stocky, export those reports too (under Stocky's reporting section). Like PO history, this is primarily a record-keeping export — your audit trail of what changed and when.

The data with NO export: your suppliers#

Here is the trap most merchants find on September 1: Stocky has no supplier export. Your supplier list — contact names, emails, phone numbers, payment terms, notes — cannot be downloaded as a file. When Stocky goes dark, that data goes with it.

The fix is manual but fast: open Stocky's supplier list now and copy each supplier's details into a spreadsheet. For most stores that's 10-40 rows and under an hour of work. It is the least automatable step on this list and the most painful one to discover too late.

Don't count on the grace period#

Shopify's guidance describes a read-only window for retrieving data after the shutdown date. Treat that as a safety net, not a plan — "read-only" means your purchasing workflow is already dead, and grace periods have a way of being shorter or flakier than expected. The deadline that matters is the one where Stocky stops doing work for you: August 31.

Where to take the files#

Any inventory tool that reads a Shopify product CSV can rebuild your catalog. In InventoryQuick, the Shopify product export maps automatically — Variant SKU, quantities, prices, barcodes, cost per item, and vendor names are recognized on sight, so a catalog import is upload-and-confirm rather than an afternoon of column matching. Your hand-built supplier spreadsheet imports the same way, and purchase orders, receiving, and reorder-point alerts are included from the $19/mo Starter plan (live two-way Shopify sync is on Pro at $49/mo). There's a 7-day full-access trial, so you can run the whole import before the deadline and see your real catalog working.

Whatever replacement you choose, the order of operations is the same: export this week, import and spot-check next week, run in parallel until you trust it, and be off Stocky well before August 31. The merchants who struggle are the ones who start on August 28.
