Automated Colorway Clearance Alerts
Every Monday, WebRun opens Rain POS, checks which discontinued colorways have sat without a sale, works out the cash tied up in the aging skeins, logs the slow movers to a Google Sheet, and sends you a Telegram clearance-candidate list ranked by dollars sitting on the shelf.
How do I find discontinued yarn colorways that are not selling?
WebRun reviews your Rain POS inventory every Monday, finds discontinued colorways that have not sold in weeks, and works out the cash each one ties up. It logs them to a Google Sheet and sends you a Telegram list ranked by dollars on the shelf, so you can clear dead stock before it goes stale for good.
- Discontinued colorways get marked down before the cash is stuck
- You see exactly which colorways tie up the most money
- No price changes without your decision
Built for yarn shops · needlework stores · fiber retailers · shop buyers

Questions, answered
Will it change prices on its own?
No. WebRun only flags discontinued colorways and suggests a discount band. You decide the markdown and apply it in Rain POS yourself. No price ever changes without you.
How does it decide a colorway is slow?
It reads the last-sold date and quantity on hand in Rain POS and flags any discontinued colorway past the stale threshold you set, then ranks the list by the cash each one is tying up.
Can it focus on discontinued stock only?
Yes. It scopes to yarn marked discontinued in Rain POS, so the list is about clearing dead stock, not your regular ongoing lines.
