Draft reorders for products running low
Output
Three variants may run out before a reorder arrives. Alder Wool Throw in Ember Stripe is already out of stock.
Harbor & Pine · September 14. Daily sales use September 7–13. Assume a 21-day lead time, steady demand and no incoming inventory. A normal reorder would arrive October 5, which is an estimate, not a supplier confirmation.
| SKU and variant | Stock | Sales/day | Days left | Reorder units |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HP-ALDWOOTHR-EMBE, Alder Wool Throw, Ember Stripe | 0 | 2 | 0 | 42 |
| HP-CASMERCRE-M-FOG, Cascade Merino Crew, Fog M | 6 | 2 | 3 | 36 |
| HP-QUASTOBOW-ASH, Quarry Stoneware Bowl Set, Ash | 15 | 1 | 15 | 6 |
Quantities cover 21 days of demand minus current stock. Email history identifies Mossbank Textiles and Covebend Ceramics as the suppliers. Both drafts are in Maya's drafts folder. Nothing was sent.

Automation steps. The agent follows these 4 steps each time it runs, using your connected store and email and calendar.
- 1
Find SKUs likely to run out before a normal reorder would arrive.
- 2
Find their suppliers in my email history.
- 3
Draft one reorder email per supplier with the SKUs, quantities based on recent sales, and a requested delivery date.
- 4
Draft everything for my review and don't send anything until I approve it.
Adjust the automation in Chat
Run this automation and tell the agent what to do differently. Ask it to schedule that version if you want the changes in future runs.
- Use each supplier's actual lead time.
- Round quantities to supplier case sizes.
- Exclude discontinued variants.
Fieldwork emails the scheduled report. Each email links to the full run as a conversation in Fieldwork. The automation asks the agent to keep a log in your knowledge base and read it before each run to check what has changed.
Adjustable schedule
Choose how often it runs at setup, from hourly to monthly. Ask in Fieldwork chat for a custom schedule and timezone.
Only useful reports
When nothing needs attention, the run skips the email. When there are findings, you get a report with a link to the full conversation.
Drafts for your review
Messages for other people wait in your own drafts folder. An automated run has no tool that sends, posts, or replies.
This automation reads your store and email and calendar. Connect Shopify, BigCommerce, or WooCommerce for your store and Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 for your email and calendar to Fieldwork.
