The cost involves a one-time payment to us for the Airtable template. Separately, you may require a paid Airtable subscription, depending on your usage.
However, our system is designed to be fully functional on Airtable's free plan.

The system uses Airtable automations to identify the oldest stock batch based on its arrival date. When an order is placed, it subtracts the required quantity from that batch. If the order quantity exceeds the oldest batch, it moves to the next oldest, continuing this process for up to five batches.
Conversely, if an order's quantity is reduced, the system returns the items to the inventory, starting with the youngest batch first.
This five-level logic is sufficient for most use cases and was designed to ensure full functionality on Airtable's free plan, which does not support the scripts needed for unlimited iterations.

The system can be connected to other applications using several methods, depending on the tool you wish to integrate:
- Native Integrations: Airtable offers built-in connections for a select list of applications (like Gmail, Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Calendar). These integrations typically do not require additional payment or setup.
- Shopify Apps: For connecting to Shopify specifically, you can use dedicated applications from the Shopify App Store, such as Airtable Sync, to sync your store data directly.
- No-Code Integration Platforms: Tools like Make or Zapier can act as a bridge, allowing you to create automated workflows that sync products, orders, and inventory levels with thousands of other platforms.
- Direct API Connection: Airtable has a robust API, which allows for direct connections with other applications that also provide an API. This method may require development resources to implement.
You can use barcode scanning in two ways:
- The Airtable mobile app (for iOS and Android) includes a feature that uses your phone’s camera to scan barcodes, allowing you to find records or update stock levels on the go.
- For desktop use, any standard USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner will work. The scanner acts as a keyboard, automatically inputting the barcode data into the selected field in your Airtable base.
- If any part of our template does not function as described, contact us, and we will resolve the issue at no cost.
- For any problems related to the Airtable platform itself, you can contact Airtable's official support.
- If you require further customizations or modifications, we can provide development services at a reduced rate. You can discuss your requirements with us on a free call or by submitting the form.

- Airtable Familiarity: To get the most out of the system, you will need to have or be willing to learn a basic understanding of how Airtable works.
- Customization Skill: Adding new modules or connecting third-party apps requires knowledge of Airtable and potentially integration platforms, or the budget to hire a developer.
- Platform Limitations: Airtable has record limits (ranging from 50k to 500k per base, depending on the plan) and may require a paid subscription for higher storage and advanced functions. It also has other specific limitations; for example, it is not well-suited for building a full-scale CRM with advanced communication logging.
