Suppliers
A supplier is anyone you buy from. Stokk creates a supplier row for each vendor synced from your ERP and gives you a per-supplier page for planning and ordering.
The list
Open Purchasing → Suppliers. You'll see one row per supplier with a few quick stats — SKU count, value on hand, lead time, and the most recent Morning Brief decision.
Supplier detail
Click a row to open the supplier page. The layout is a single scroll, not tabs:
- Header — supplier name, code, status badges.
- Contact info — email, phone, account contact.
- Structured config — lead time, order day, MOQs, payment terms, reliability score. Editable inline.
- SIF knowledge — freeform markdown. See SIFs.
- Order schedule— the supplier's cadence (weekly, monthly, quarterly…), lead time, and any closed periods. A 3-month calendar shows the upcoming order dates with closures shaded; the order before a closure is automatically sized to carry through it. You can also set all of this by telling the SIF assistant.
- Purchase orders — open and historical POs to this supplier.
- Product mappings — every SKU sourced from this supplier, in the same grid as Inventory: open/closed tabs, sort/filter, add or reorder columns (stock, cover, sales, supplier cost…), and an editable order multiple. The Status column toggles a SKU open or closed at the warehouse inline, just like Inventory — closed SKUs drop out of replenishment.
- Stock feed— an optional nightly XML feed of this supplier's stock that you can share with the supplier. See Supplier stock feeds.
- SIF version history — every edit to the SIF, dated and authored.
Adding a supplier
New suppliers come in through ERP sync — you shouldn't normally need to create one manually. If a supplier exists in Stokk before the ERP, it's typically a sync ordering issue rather than something to fix in the UI.
