Step 2 of 2

Your first shipment

Three steps from empty warehouse to a package out the door: receive inventory, create an order, and ship it.

Receive inventory

Open Receiving → New Receipt, pick the client, and add the SKUs and quantities arriving. As you check items in, assign them to bins — this is what lets the picker find them later. If a SKU doesn't exist yet, create it from the same screen without leaving the receipt.

Create an order

Open Work Orders → New Work Order, select the client, and add the line items to ship. You can enter orders manually here, or — once you've connected a sales channel (Shopify, Amazon, etc.) — they'll show up automatically.

Pick, pack, and ship

The order moves through three stages, each with its own screen:

  • Pick — the picker walks the suggested bin route and scans each item.
  • Pack — items get boxed and weighed.
  • Ship — apply the shipping label and mark the order shipped in Storely. In-app rate shopping and label buying is a coming-soon add-on; until it's on your account, your client typically supplies their own label for you to apply — see Orders, allocation & shipping for details.

That's the core loop. Everything else in Storely builds on these same screens.
