The Clearance Recommendations report is the inverse of Reorder Recommendations: instead of what to buy, it surfaces what to clear. It unifies overstock and dead/stale stock into one list ranked by the cash tied up, so you can free up working capital. Key columns: product, variant, SKU, location, on-hand quantity, days of cover, days since last sale, excess units, cash tied up, current discount, and a suggested action. Cash tied up is the excess units at cost (so component bundles never show phantom cash). Current discount is read from the variant’s compare-at price, so you can see what’s already marked down. Suggested action is a guide based on severity, not a guaranteed markdown:
  • Mark down - overstocked but still moving; a modest discount brings cover back in line
  • Deep markdown - far too much cover, or not selling; a larger discount clears it faster
  • Liquidate - dead stock with no recent sales; recover cash before it ages further
Click any row to open an explanation of why the SKU is flagged - its own days of cover, excess units, and cash tied up - with a link to edit the price in Shopify. When to use it: to turn the Overstocked and Dead Stock reports into action and free up cash. Stockful recommends what to clear; applying the markdown stays with you in Shopify.
