Automated Print Shop Blank Goods Reorder
Every morning, WebRun opens shopVOX, finds blank goods that have dropped below your reorder threshold, drafts a supplier purchase order for each affected item, and posts your shop a Slack alert with PO drafts waiting in Gmail for approval.
How do I automatically reorder blank apparel and substrates when stock runs low?
WebRun opens shopVOX every morning, checks blank goods and substrate inventory against your reorder thresholds, and drafts a supplier purchase order in Gmail for every item running low. It then posts your team a Slack low-stock alert so you can review the PO drafts and send them before a job is left waiting on blanks.
- Low blank goods are flagged before a job is held up waiting on stock
- Every purchase order is reviewed and approved by a human before it is sent
- Items already restocked are skipped automatically from live shopVOX inventory

Questions, answered
Will it place a blanks order with the supplier automatically?
No. WebRun drafts the purchase order in Gmail for your review and saves it. You decide whether to send it, so no order is placed without human approval.
How do I set the reorder point for each item?
Set the reorder quantity on each inventory item in shopVOX. WebRun reads those thresholds each morning and drafts POs only for items that have crossed them.
What if we already placed an order manually?
Update the inventory record or add an outstanding PO in shopVOX and WebRun will see the updated quantity on the next run and skip that item.
