Automated Copyt Aged Inventory Markdown Alerts
Every Monday, WebRun opens Copyt, finds pairs that have sat past your aging threshold, checks each one's carrying cost in QuickBooks, and posts Slack a markdown list ranked by how long the cash has been tied up.
How do I spot aged sneaker inventory before it hurts my margin?
Every Monday, WebRun opens Copyt to find pairs sitting unsold past 60 days, then checks each one's carrying cost in QuickBooks. It posts Slack a markdown candidate list ranked by days held and cash tied up, so aging inventory gets addressed weekly instead of quietly dragging on your margin.
- Cash tied up in slow-moving stock gets flagged every week, not at year end
- Markdown decisions are ranked by days held, so the oldest cash comes first
- Nothing is written down or repriced without your team's approval
Built for sneaker resale shops · streetwear resale businesses · multi-location resellers

Questions, answered
Will it write down inventory value or change prices?
No. It only flags aged pairs and their tied-up cash. Any markdown, price change, or write-down in QuickBooks is a decision your team makes and applies yourselves.
How old does a pair need to be to get flagged?
Past 60 days unsold by default. That threshold is what separates normal shelf time from inventory that is genuinely dragging on your cash flow and margin.
Does it look at resale value or just what I paid?
Both. It pulls your cost basis from QuickBooks and compares it against the pair's current list price, so you see aging stock and overstated value together, not just one or the other.
