How do I track price and stock changes on the materials I buy every week?

- Crews hear about an out-of-stock item before they drive to the store
- Nothing is ordered, emailed, or texted without a person approving it

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it buy anything or place an order?
No. WebRun only looks up prices and store availability on Lowes.com. It never adds an item to a cart, checks out, or charges a card. Every purchase decision stays with your buyer, working from the draft it prepares.
Does it send the email or the text on its own?
No. The Gmail update is saved as an unsent draft and the Twilio crew text is queued for approval. Both wait for a person to release them, so nothing leaves your business unread.
How does it know which store to check?
You set the collection branch once, and every run checks price and availability at that store. Crews working out of two branches can run two copies of the workflow, one per store.
