Turn min and max stock levels into a ready to approve reorder
Every morning, WebRun opens DDI Inform, finds branch SKUs at or below their min level, calculates the reorder quantity up to max and its total dollar value, checks QuickBooks for the current cash and open payables position, drafts the purchase order in DDI Inform for the buyer to release, and posts a Slack summary with the dollar impact.

How do I automatically catch stock below min and max reorder points?
WebRun checks DDI Inform every morning for branch stock at or below its min level, drafts a purchase order up to max for each SKU, and checks QuickBooks for the current cash and payables position before posting the buyer a Slack summary with the total dollar impact. Every reorder stays drafted and unreleased until the buyer approves it.
- Branch stock below min gets a drafted reorder before the buyer even opens DDI Inform
- Every reorder total is checked against cash and payables before release
- No SKU already on order gets drafted for reorder twice

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it release the purchase orders to vendors on its own?
No. Every reorder is drafted inside DDI Inform and left unreleased. The buyer still reviews and releases each purchase order before it reaches a vendor.
Why does it check QuickBooks before drafting a reorder?
So the buyer sees the dollar impact against the current cash and payables position, not just a stock shortage, before deciding what to release first.
What if a SKU was already reordered yesterday?
It reads the live on order quantity in DDI Inform each morning, so a SKU already on an open purchase order is not drafted twice.
