How do you use the POS to track inventory and receive alerts when its time to restock items?

[DrSmith36]

For a Restaurant Manager, tracking inventory is imperative. However, when done manually, it's a nightmare. I need assistance using the POS to input and track inventory and receive alerts on when its time to order when product reaches its threshold.

Thank you for your swift reply.

Godspeed,

Hi @DrSmith36,

Thanks for reaching out! Happy to assist you with inventory tracking.

You are able to setup low stock alert from the dashboard so when you reach a certain level you are notified to order more product.

To schedule an automatic restocking time:

From your Square Dashboard, go to Items & Orders > Items > Item Library.

Select the item you want to schedule.

Under Variations, click the Stock count. Note: If the stock is zero, the stock count may show as None or a dash.

An “Edit variation” window will pop up. Under “Manage stock,” toggle on Mark as Sold Out and Choose a time to make for sale again.

You can choose to keep the restock scheduled for the end of your business day or to use the date selector to choose a custom date and time.

Select Done > Save.
