Purchasing has its own settings, at Settings → Purchasing, covering how costs behave, how your purchase order documents look, and the default email sent to suppliers.
Costs
- Allocate purchase order costs by - the default method for spreading shipping and fees across a new order’s units: Value (in proportion to line cost) or Quantity (equally per unit). Each order can override this until its first receipt. See costs and landed cost.
- Sync landed cost to Shopify - when on, after each receipt Stockful updates the variant’s cost per item in Shopify to its new average landed cost, so Shopify’s margins match yours.
Syncing overwrites the existing cost per item in Shopify and can’t be undone. It’s off by default - leave it off if you maintain cost per item another way.
Document branding
Set a company display name and upload a logo (PNG or JPG, up to 1 MB). These appear on your purchase order PDFs, packing slips and supplier emails. The company name falls back to your store name when left blank.
Purchase order emails
Set the default subject and message used when you email a purchase order to a supplier. You can edit any email before it sends, and blank fields fall back to these defaults.
Use placeholders that fill in automatically:
{{po_number}} - the order’s reference number
{{supplier_name}} - the supplier’s name
{{contact_name}} - the supplier contact
{{store_name}} - your store name
