Low Stock Inventory Report

Get notified by email when your inventory runs low

Updated over a week ago

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
