Stock Alerts: Catch Low Inventory Before It Sells Out

Stock Alerts: Catch Low Inventory Before It Sells Out

Trooix

The worst time to learn a best-seller is out of stock is when a customer tells you. By then you've already lost the sale — and probably a few before it. Inventory runs low quietly, in the background, while you're busy running everything else.

Stock Alerts puts a clear, colour-coded warning right on your dashboard the moment a product dips below the level you set. You see what's running low at a glance, so you can reorder before it sells out — not after.

It pairs naturally with bulk editing your products — spot what's low here, then retag or restock a whole group in one pass. And keeping your best-sellers on the shelf means every visit counts, which is exactly what a checkout upsell helps you make the most of.

What you see

A card on your dashboard lists the products getting low, sorted so the most urgent ones jump out. Each is colour-coded by how close it is to gone, so a single glance tells you what needs attention today versus what can wait.

  • At-a-glance urgency — critical, warning, and low are colour-coded.
  • Your levels, your call — set the thresholds that make sense for your store.
  • Straight to the fix — jump to the product to update stock or reorder.

Where it earns its keep

If you carry products that move fast, run limited batches, or simply can't afford to disappoint repeat buyers, this is the quiet safety net that keeps your shelves stocked and your sales flowing. No spreadsheet checks, no nasty surprises.

Setting it up

Turn it on and set two numbers: the level where a product is "getting low" and the level where it's "critical." The card appears on your dashboard right away and updates itself — no maintenance from you.

It's a ready-made feature you add in a click. Want alerts only for certain products, or a different way of sorting them? Describe it in plain English and Trooix adjusts it for you.

Questions, answered

What are low stock alerts?
