See stock where it actually sits
Track quantities by branch instead of guessing from one global number. Every location gets its own on-hand view, movement history, and reorder context.
Inventory Booster Extension
Built for Cartaro tenants
Operational inventory
Run inventory, purchasing, and branch stock from one Cartaro workspace.
Inventory Booster adds branch-aware stock control, supplier workflows, purchase orders, transfers, manual adjustments, and ordered-versus-sold reporting for Cartaro tenants.
Tracks
Stock by branch
Handles
Suppliers, POs & transfers
Reports
Ordered, sold & on-hand
Run purchasing without side spreadsheets
Suppliers, purchase orders, partial receiving, and transfer workflows live inside the same workspace the team already uses to run commerce.
Report movement, not just counts
Compare ordered units, sold units, incoming quantities, low-stock alerts, and transfer activity in one operational reporting layer.
Who it is for
Built for merchants who run stock across real teams, real locations, and real receiving workflows.
Inventory Booster is for businesses that have moved beyond “just update the quantity field” and need structured operational control inside Cartaro.
Multi-branch operators
Brands that need to know what is on hand in each branch, not just the total across the business.
Operations teams
Teams responsible for stock accuracy, replenishment, receiving, and day-to-day availability decisions.
Purchasing managers
People who manage suppliers, purchase orders, incoming stock, and partial receiving cycles.
Store and warehouse leads
Branch managers who move inventory between locations and need a clean transfer trail.
Commerce owners
Decision makers who want one source of truth for ordered, sold, incoming, low-stock, and out-of-stock signals.
Pain points
Operational inventory problems this extension is built to remove.
Inventory Booster is not a cosmetic dashboard. Each workflow exists to replace a familiar ops headache.
One quantity field for many branches
Global stock numbers break down the moment teams need to know which branch can actually fulfill or receive stock. Inventory Booster gives each branch its own stock position.
Receiving inventory in spreadsheets
Without supplier and purchase order workflows, incoming stock lives in side files and chat messages. Inventory Booster keeps ordering and receiving in one operational flow.
No clean transfer trail
Moving stock between branches without a dispatch and receive flow makes stock accuracy drift. Transfers in Inventory Booster create a real operational handoff.
Manual adjustments with no context
Teams often know the quantity changed but lose the why. The inventory ledger gives each movement a type and keeps the operational story attached.
Low-stock alerts too late
By the time someone notices, the branch is already out. Reorder defaults and branch-level stock views help teams act earlier.
Sales reporting disconnected from stock
Merchants need to compare what was ordered, what counts as sold, what is incoming, and what is still on hand. Inventory Booster turns those into one reporting surface.
Feature tour
Five views that show how Inventory Booster works in daily operations.
01 · Overview
Start the day with branch-aware inventory KPIs.
The overview pulls on-hand, available, incoming, ordered, sold, low-stock, out-of-stock, and in-transit signals into one operational dashboard.
- Branch filters for real operating context
- Incoming and open purchase signals together
- Low-stock and out-of-stock surfaced early
02 · Stock browser
Open a stock view that can actually be acted on.
Browse branch stock by product or variant, trigger manual adjustments, start a transfer, and check reorder settings without jumping across tools.
- Grouped actions from one stock screen
- Branch, SKU, and availability context together
- Links back to the product record when needed
03 · Suppliers & receiving
Create purchase orders and receive stock in controlled steps.
Suppliers, order lines, ordered quantities, partial receipts, and remaining quantities stay tied together so receiving becomes a tracked flow instead of a guess.
- Supplier records live inside the same workspace
- Partial receiving updates stock and PO status
- Open quantity stays visible until completion
04 · Transfers
Move inventory between branches with a proper dispatch and receive cycle.
A transfer leaves the source branch on dispatch and only lands in the destination when received, which keeps in-transit units visible instead of disappearing in the middle.
- Clear source and destination ownership
- In-transit quantities stay visible
- Status flow matches real branch handoff
05 · Reporting & settings
Align sold logic, branch defaults, and reporting in one place.
Teams can define how sold counts are calculated, set a default fulfillment branch, and review ordered-versus-sold metrics without losing the link to operational stock.
- Sold counting modes for different operating rules
- Default branch behavior for unassigned orders
- Ordered, sold, and on-hand in one reporting frame
