Low Stock Inventory Report

Get notified by email when your inventory runs low

What is the Low Stock Inventory Report?

The Low Stock Inventory Report in the Notify Me app alerts you when a product or variant drops below a stock threshold you’ve set. This helps prevent stockouts, gives visibility into low inventory, and supports smarter restocking decisions.


Key Features

You can customize:

  • Notification type: immediate alerts or scheduled summaries

  • Stock threshold: e.g., get notified when stock is 5 or fewer

  • Schedule settings: frequency, time of day, and time zone

  • Report format: product details shown directly in email or linked as a downloadable CSV

📧 All reports are delivered by email to the merchant.


How to Configure Reports

  1. Go to Notify Me > Low Stock in your Shopify admin.

  2. Under Low-stock notifications, enable the Low Stock Inventory Report feature.

Choose Notification Type

  • Immediate notifications
    Sends an alert email as soon as inventory drops below your threshold.

  • Scheduled notifications
    Sends a summary report at a set frequency:

    • Daily

    • Weekly (choose the weekday)

    • Monthly (choose the day of month)

    • Set a preferred delivery time

    • Set or override your time zone (defaults to your Shopify store’s timezone)

Set Your Inventory Threshold

  • Enter the stock quantity that should trigger alerts.

  • Example: if set to 3, any item with 3 or fewer units will be included in reports.

Minimum allowed value for threshold is 1.

Not receiving your report?

✅ Make sure Low Stock Reports are turned ON

✅ Double-check your threshold (must be at least 1)

✅ If using scheduled reports, confirm:

  • Your time zone is correct

  • You’ve set a delivery time

✅ Look in your spam folder for emails from "Notify Me!"

✅ If CSV won’t open, check you're logged into the correct Shopify account
