How Stocklyst helps
AI Import Engine
Spreadsheet booking and stock columns do not map cleanly — Upload CSV or Excel files, review AI-suggested mappings, validate, and import
Auto min/max calculation
High-turn consumables run out during peak event weeks — Research-based reorder points for fast movers, reviewed weekly by branch
Expiry tracking
Dated consumables are missed in event prep — Zone-level expiry dates with automatic near-expiry monitoring across all locations
Zone-level tracking
Teams cannot find items across warehouse, truck, and venue — Strict operational zone model from prep through venue staging with precise counts
Bundle management
Event kits are rebuilt manually and go out incomplete — Create standard bundles and monitor missing components before dispatch
Variant management
Equipment variations for sizes and power ratings are tracked separately — Group equipment variations under one parent item with independent SKU and quantity per variant
Related item links
Complementary setup equipment is not linked for coordinated dispatch — Link complementary equipment so event teams can verify all related stock before loading
Offline mobile app
Venue posting is delayed by low connectivity — Capture check-out, check-in, and count offline, then sync automatically on reconnect
Activity logs
No structured audit trail for item custody and condition changes — Full audit trail of every adjustment, transfer, and status change with user attribution
Barcode scanning
Kit completeness is not verified at checkout or return — Built-in barcode scanner to verify picks at every handoff point and reduce missing items
Frequently asked questions
- Can I track rental assets across warehouses, trucks, and venue sites?
- Yes. Create a branch for each warehouse, truck, and venue staging area. Zones track the flow from prep to packed to truck to venue. Transfers between branches document every movement.
- How does Stocklyst help prevent double bookings?
- Zone-level tracking shows real-time availability by location. Event ID and date window custom fields link inventory to specific events, and transfer workflows make committed stock visible.
- Can I manage event kits and check for completeness?
- Create bundles for standard event kits. The system monitors component availability so you can catch missing items before dispatch. Barcode scanning verifies completeness at checkout.
- Does it work at venues with poor connectivity?
- The mobile app works fully offline. Count, adjust, and scan inventory at venues without connectivity, then sync everything when you reconnect.
- How do I handle partial returns across multiple days?
- Use the transfer workflow to move returned items from venue staging back to available stock after condition check. Each partial return is logged as a separate transfer for a complete audit trail.
