Automated ShipBob Low Inventory Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens the ShipBob merchant dashboard, checks on-hand quantity per SKU across every fulfillment center against its reorder point, logs each low SKU to an Airtable tracker, and creates a Notion restock task for anything newly below threshold so fulfillment does not stall.

In short

How do I get alerted before ShipBob inventory runs low?

WebRun checks the ShipBob merchant dashboard every morning for SKU inventory across every fulfillment center against each product's reorder point, logs low SKUs to an Airtable tracker, and creates a Notion restock task for anything newly below threshold. This keeps fulfillment from stalling on a stock-out no one noticed yet.

  • Low stock is caught before it stalls order fulfillment
  • Restock tasks are prioritized by how many warehouses are affected
  • Restocked SKUs drop off the queue automatically

Questions, answered

Will it place a restock shipment to ShipBob automatically?

No. WebRun only reads inventory levels and creates the restock task. Sending new inventory to ShipBob stays a decision your team makes with the supplier.

How is a SKU marked high priority?

Any SKU that is low or out at more than one fulfillment center gets marked high priority, since that affects shipping speed across a wider set of orders.

What happens once a SKU is restocked?

It checks live inventory each morning, so a SKU that is topped up drops off the low-inventory list and its Airtable row is marked updated.

Put this on autopilot.
