Low stock alerts and purchase orders, before a best seller runs out
One Tap Manager works out how fast each item sells and how long each supplier takes to deliver, warns you before stock runs out, and drafts the purchase order for that supplier. You check it and approve it, and it is emailed to the supplier with the order attached as a PDF. Stock reordering and purchase orders are on the Max plan at ₹999 a month (free on every account during the launch period).
How does it decide when to reorder?
For every item it divides the stock you have by what you sell on an average day. That is how many days the stock will last. When that falls below your supplier's delivery time plus a 20% safety margin, it is time to order.

How much does it order?
At first, the supplier's minimum order. Once you enter what placing an order costs you and what holding stock costs you, and there is a month of sales, it works out the order size that keeps those two costs lowest together. You can always type your own quantity, and yours wins.
What happens to the purchase order?
- Items that need ordering are grouped by supplier into one draft each.
- Something already on an order that has not arrived is not ordered twice.
- You see the lines, the maths behind each quantity and the email, and can change any of it.
- Approve, and the email is written and sent with the purchase order as a PDF, from your own address.
Stock by size and colour
A product can carry up to two options, usually size and colour, and every combination is its own record with its own stock count, SKU and, if you want, its own price. One shirt in four sizes and three colours is twelve things to count, and the app counts all twelve. An order on your One Tap website takes the right one out of stock on its own.
Common questions
Is there a free way to work out a reorder point?
Yes. The reorder point calculator in the guide to when to reorder stock is free and needs no sign-up.
Is stock reordering on the Free plan?
No. It is on the Max plan at ₹999 a month (free on every account during the launch period). A single purchase order can also be bought with credits, without a subscription.
Does stock go down on its own?
Yes, for orders on your One Tap website. Sales you upload from other channels count towards how fast each item sells.
