Inventory & Sales Reporting for Retail
Make informed business decisions with Shopventory’s robust reporting engine
The lack of visibility into accurate inventory valuation, slow moving products, and products that keep your customers coming back is a massive roadblock to a successful retail strategy. Real-time reporting is essential in order to take control of your retail inventory and grow your business.
Shopventory’s inventory management system connects with your point of sales system and/or e-commerce platform to receive real-time sales and inventory data.
Hone in on finances, slow-moving product, stock forecasting, vendor performance, and more. Shopventory reports are key to creating a successful retail business strategy.

Take Control of Your Retail Store
Creating a successful business strategy requires using inventory and sales reporting to optimize your stock. Easily identify products that aren’t moving, like a cut of jeans, or discover your most profitable stock so you know exactly what to order.
With a reporting platform you have access to the information you need to make strategic business decisions based on data, not intuition.
Inventory Management Reporting Benefits

How to Start a Reporting Strategy for Your Retail Store
In order to have a successful reporting strategy that grows your business, you need access to accurate inventory reporting. While some businesses use a retail inventory list or templates, managing them takes a significant amount of time and are prone to human error.
Some POS systems and e-commerce platforms have limitations to their reporting capabilities and don’t give a comprehensive look at the health of your inventory.

Sales Report
Whether you place new product orders on a weekly basis or have been placing the same orders for years, Shopventory’s sales reports are crucial for optimizing your product assortment strategy.

You can easily see:
- How much revenue is tied up in your aging stock
- How much you paid for those products (if you have added costs to any variants)
