The supplier PO, conversation, and receipt stay together. Stock and purchase costs carry forward to the next buy.
Start with stock needs or add items yourself. Group the purchase by supplier, choose the receiving store, and review packs, quantities, and prices before sending.
Follow confirmations, delivery dates, and proposed changes in the same PO record. Everyone can see what the supplier agreed to and what is still due.
Receive against the current PO, record what arrived, and turn supplier packs into sellable stock. Keep delivery documents and received costs with the order.
Bring sales, stock, and replenishment context together across stores, warehouses, and sales channels. Use each location’s quantities and sales activity to review the next buy.
Map supplier packs to your retail products so an order, its receipt, and the resulting stock use the right quantities. Several suppliers or pack sizes can feed the same sellable product.
After receiving and reviewing the order, send its purchase records to QuickBooks or Xero using your configured mappings. The handoff uses the quantities and costs your team checked.
Check what’s due, what changed, and what to buy next.
From buyer to store
The buyer sends the supplier PO. The team checks replies and delivery dates. The store receives against that order, with stock and costs recorded in the same workflow.

Talk through your supplier workflow with a LineNow team member before you start.
LineNow has been an excellent Shopify partner for a complex implementation involving not only ecommerce, but also procurement, inventory, and supplier management.
We researched many PO and inventory apps that are available, most of them are 'cookie cutter' type apps that force you to be limited on what features you will have access to. Not this one. You will not be disappointed!
Before LineNow, we were spending a huge amount of time and focus simply managing the fulfillment of our products. We searched far and wide for good solutions but couldn't find anything that had the feature set we were looking for. LineNow's unique approach to automating dropshipping purchase orders has saved us countless hours and stress.
It is straightforward enough for store employees to use without extensive training
