Sell-through and reorder reports without the Sunday stocktake
Most boutique owners decide what to reorder from a hand count and a gut feel. We set up a report that reads your sales each week and lists what sold, what's sitting on the rack, and what you might reorder. We work with a four-person fashion boutique where that report replaced the owner's Sunday stocktake. The buying decisions stay with the owner, because the report knows numbers, not next season.

Reports a small fashion business can stop building
Weekly sell-through
What sold by style, size, and colour, pulled from Square or Shopify, with the slow movers listed first.
Suggested reorders
A short list of pieces selling fast with low stock, for the owner to decide on, never ordered on its own.
Drop performance
How a new drop sold in its first two weeks against the last one, with the sizes that ran out first.
Markdown candidates
Pieces sitting longer than you'd like, so end-of-season sale decisions start from facts.
Where the reporting time goes
In a small boutique, buying decisions happen on a Sunday with a notepad. The owner walks the racks, counts what’s left, checks the Square sales, and works out what to reorder before the supplier’s Monday cut-off. It takes hours, and it’s easy to miss the size that keeps selling out or the style that hasn’t moved in six weeks.
How the report gets made
A report that writes itself (the industry calls it automated reporting) pulls your sales numbers from where they already live and lays them out the way you’d want to read them. For a boutique, it reads Square sales, and Shopify too if you sell online. Each week it lists what sold by style, size, and colour, what’s sitting, and which pieces you might reorder. An AI helper adds a short note in plain words so you don’t have to read a spreadsheet to see the pattern.
What it did for a boutique
We work with a four-person fashion boutique where the owner counted sell-through by hand each Sunday to decide reorders. We built a report from Square sales that lists what sold, what sits, and suggested reorders. The Sunday stocktake is gone. Buying decisions stay with the owner, who still knows things no sales report can, like which supplier is running late.
What the report can’t see
The report is only as good as the sales data. A piece sold without being scanned won’t show up, and a piece on hold for a customer looks like it’s sitting. It also can’t see trends that haven’t happened yet. If you’re reading a season ahead, the report gives you last month and you bring the rest.
