Every evening, WebRun opens Silo, reads the spoilage and shrink write-off transactions your warehouse logged that day, totals the cost impact by commodity and reason code, records it in a Google Sheet, and texts your plant manager through Twilio if the day's total crosses the threshold you set.

How do I track daily produce spoilage and shrink write-off costs automatically?
WebRun opens Silo every evening and reads the spoilage and shrink write-off transactions your warehouse already logged that day, grouping the cost impact by commodity and reason code. It records the totals in a Google Sheet report and texts your plant manager through Twilio whenever the day's total crosses the threshold you set, so rising shrink gets caught early.
- Shrink cost is visible the same night it happens, not at month-end close
- Plant manager is texted only on days the loss crosses your threshold
- Every write-off is grouped by commodity and reason so patterns are easy to spot

Questions, answered
Does it create the write-off entries in Silo?
No. WebRun only reads write-off and spoilage transactions your warehouse has already logged in Silo. It reports and totals them, it does not create or approve write-off entries itself.
What counts toward the day's total?
Every spoilage or shrink transaction logged in Silo that day, grouped by the reason code your team used, such as over-ripe, damaged, or short-dated. Nothing is estimated or guessed.
Who gets the SMS alert?
Only the plant manager you set during setup, and only on days the total write-off cost meets or exceeds your threshold. Quiet days do not generate a text.
