What do you use for stock, re-ordering, and purchase orders?

Linnworks - Bluepark

We hope to go live with Linnworks by the end of next week, partly integrated with BP and completely with Amazon and Royal Mail Despatch Express, lots of sleepless nights so far and lots of work but it looks like it will all be worthwhile and save us many hours of manual entry.

Watch this space for news of progress (or lack of!)

I am not really using Ebay or Amazon yet so these are not a priority for me and I think there are a lot of merchants out there who are still looking for the basics to help them run their internet business in a fully integrated way. Every step of the way in this business is either very complicated or expensive or both.

Richard, is it necessary to look for backend software to integrate with? It seems to me that Blue Park is already part of the way there. You already have a good shopping cart that links up with Quickbooks so that takes care of sales and accounting. Blue Park manages stock on the web site so why not develop that so it can create purchase orders, manage backorders and CRM for customer relations. Is it possible?

If it can be done you had better brace yourself for the rush . . .

I know this reply is 2.5 years late but my thoughts exactly Geoff. I also think Bluepark could build a solid and efficient solution for businesses looking for the 'basics'. Creating purchase orders, updating stock etc, if bluepark provided this functionlity built in, I would happily pay a premium. Just out of interest Geoff, what system do you now use for stock control?
