Monitor supplier price & stock

Connect a product to its supplier and understand the separate controls for monitoring, restocking and out-of-stock protection.

  1. 01

    Find the product in your inventory

    Open your inventory (SKUs in the demo menu) and locate the product. Check the Monitor column, supplier status and Amazon listing status separately.

    No automatic supplier reading? Use a manual cost

    A saved supplier link does not mean MarkHub can read that retailer automatically. If automatic reading is unavailable, keep the accepted product link, enter Supplier Price manually and leave Monitor supplier price & stock off. Follow the Manual supplier setup step in Add and configure a product for the full workflow.

    Manual supplier cost is separate from manual selling price. A product with a manual cost can still use a repricing strategy with Reprice product in Amazon enabled. For manual stock management, turn off both When item is sold, restock quantity and If supplier goes OOS, set quantity to 0 in Amazon. Update your available quantity yourself. On a supported supplier, choosing a manual cost alone does not turn stock monitoring off.

    Understand the automation switches

    For a supplier with automatic reading available, enable Monitor supplier price & stock. Review If supplier goes OOS, set quantity to 0 in Amazon separately from When item is sold, restock quantity and Reprice product in Amazon. Select Save Product after reviewing the settings.

    OOS protection requires monitoring. When an out-of-stock supplier signal is detected and the relevant option is enabled, MarkHub can set Amazon quantity to zero. Detection and updates are not instantaneous. Restocking is a separate option.
