Automated DME Inventory Reorder Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens TeamDME, checks current stock levels against reorder points for all stocked items, identifies those at or below threshold, drafts a purchase order in Gmail addressed to each supplier for your team to review and send, and posts a low-stock summary to Slack so nothing runs out unexpectedly.

In short

How do I automatically identify low-stock DME inventory and draft reorder purchase orders?

WebRun checks TeamDME every morning for items at or below their reorder point, drafts a purchase order to each supplier in Gmail for your team to review and send, and posts a Slack low-stock summary with zero-stock items flagged as critical. No order is placed until a staff member approves, so your inventory stays stocked without the risk of accidental over-ordering.

  • Every low-stock item is caught each morning before it reaches zero
  • Draft purchase orders are ready for one-click approval by purchasing staff
  • Duplicate reorders are prevented by checking for open POs automatically

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it place an order with a supplier automatically?

No. WebRun drafts the purchase order email and saves it in Gmail for your purchasing team to review. No order is submitted to a supplier until a staff member approves and sends it.

How does it know when to reorder?

It compares the current on-hand quantity in TeamDME against the reorder point set for each item. You control the thresholds in TeamDME and WebRun reads them each morning.

What if an item is already on order from a prior purchase?

It checks for open purchase orders in TeamDME before flagging an item, so items already on order are excluded to prevent duplicate reorders.

Put this on autopilot.
