FAQ

Frequently asked.

Should I use InventoryQuick instead of Shopify?

They solve different problems. Shopify is an e-commerce platform for selling online. InventoryQuick is inventory management software for tracking, ordering, and optimizing stock. Many businesses use both — Shopify for their online store and InventoryQuick for managing their inventory, suppliers, and purchase orders. InventoryQuick has a built-in Shopify integration to keep everything in sync.

Does Shopify have purchase orders?

Not natively. Shopify's built-in inventory only tracks quantities and transfers. For purchase orders, you need a third-party app from the Shopify App Store, which typically costs $20-$100/mo on top of your Shopify subscription. InventoryQuick includes purchase orders, supplier management, and receiving workflows on every paid plan.

Can I connect InventoryQuick to my Shopify store?

Yes. InventoryQuick has a built-in Shopify integration that syncs your products and inventory levels between both platforms. This means you can manage purchase orders, track stock across warehouses, and run demand forecasting in InventoryQuick — while your Shopify store stays up to date automatically.

Can I migrate from Shopify to InventoryQuick?

You don't have to choose one or the other — most Shopify sellers use InventoryQuick alongside Shopify, not instead of it. But if you want to import your Shopify product catalog, export it as CSV and upload to InventoryQuick. We auto-detect Shopify columns like Handle, Variant SKU, Variant Inventory Qty, and Variant Price, and map them automatically.
