Command: restock-review

Scan inventory for below-threshold SKUs and create ordered restock proposals.

Inputs

Inventory system — Connection to your inventory or order-management system (e.g., Shopify, custom database, ERP). Default: read from your current active system's inventory API.

Reorder threshold — Minimum stock level per SKU; trigger restock when inventory falls below this. Default: 20 units or org-configured baseline.

Reorder quantity — Standard or dynamic amount (e.g., 30-day forecast demand, supplier case/pallet minimum). Default: calculated from historical daily sales velocity.

Approval gate threshold — Order value or quantity requiring human sign-off before fulfillment (e.g., $5,000 or 500 units). Default: your org-set procurement policy.

Steps

  1. Query your inventory system and identify all active SKUs currently below reorder threshold.
  2. For each SKU, calculate daily usage velocity from sales and returns data (last 30 days).
  3. Compute reorder quantity as: (lead time in days + safety buffer days) × daily velocity; round up to supplier minimums.
  4. Group reorder items by supplier to optimize shipping and align with lead times.
  5. Create a reorder-proposal task for each group; include SKU list, total quantity, cost estimate, and expected delivery date.
  6. Check if total order value exceeds your approval gate; flag for human review if so.
  7. Route ready proposals to your procurement workflow; mark tasks in progress until purchase order is issued.

Constraints

  • Never fulfill reorders exceeding your org's approval gate without explicit human authorization.
  • Account for open purchase orders and inbound inventory to prevent over-ordering.
  • Respect supplier minimums, lead-time windows, and seasonal allocation policies.

Done when: reorder-proposal tasks exist for every below-threshold SKU, grouped by supplier, and routed for approval or fulfillment.
