Inventory Management That Works Alongside Clover POS

Inventory Management That Works Alongside Clover POS

Clover POS tracks items and processes sales, but its built-in inventory features stop at basic stock levels. PAR management, weekly counting workflow, and vendor-ready order emails require third-party apps from the Clover App Market that add monthly costs. TrackItWeekly adds all of that in one tool at $19/month. No Clover integration needed. Count weekly, get auto-calculated PAR levels, and send vendor-ready order emails while Clover handles your register.

What Does Clover POS Do for Inventory?

Clover's built-in inventory features let you track items, manage categories, view stock levels, and set up modifiers. Clover Register and Register Plus plans include basic inventory reporting. You can see what sold and what the system thinks you have on hand.

For anything beyond basic tracking, Clover relies on its App Market. Third-party apps add features like barcode scanning, purchase orders, and advanced reporting. Each app is a separate subscription with its own monthly cost, its own interface, and its own learning curve. Stacking multiple apps to get what you need can end up costing more than a dedicated inventory tool.

The Clover App Market Problem

Clover's App Market has dozens of inventory-related apps. Each one handles a piece of the puzzle. One app does barcode scanning. Another does purchase orders. Another does reporting. You end up paying $15 here, $25 there, $30 somewhere else, and your managers have to learn three different interfaces that do not talk to each other.

The total monthly cost of stacking Clover inventory apps often exceeds $50 to $70 per month, and you still do not have a unified counting-to-ordering workflow. You have three tools that each do one thing, none of which connect to each other.

TrackItWeekly replaces that stack with one app at $19/month that does the entire workflow: count, see PAR levels, generate order, send vendor email. One interface. One subscription. One learning curve for your managers.

How Do Clover and TrackItWeekly Work Together?

Clover handles your register and payments. TrackItWeekly handles your stockroom counting and ordering. They are separate tools that serve separate parts of your operation.

The weekly workflow:

  1. Count day: Your manager opens TrackItWeekly on their phone and walks the stockroom. They scan items for lookup, enter physical counts, and see PAR levels and Stock Dots for every item.
  2. Order generation: TrackItWeekly shows what needs ordering based on rolling usage averages and PAR levels. Your manager sends vendor-ready order emails directly from the app.
  3. All week: Clover processes sales, tracks revenue, and runs your register. No changes to your Clover setup.
  4. Weekly reconciliation: Your TrackItWeekly count catches discrepancies between Clover's system stock and your physical stock. Shrinkage, damage, and miscounts become visible.

Do I Need to Change My Clover Setup?

No. TrackItWeekly does not integrate with Clover and does not need to. You keep your Clover hardware, your Clover plan, and your Clover app setup exactly as they are. TrackItWeekly is a separate app that your managers download on their phones for the weekly count. Setup takes under 5 minutes: import your distributor list, set your location, and start counting.

How Much Does It Cost to Add TrackItWeekly to Clover?

TrackItWeekly Starter is $19/month for one location and 500 SKUs. The Growth plan at $79/month supports up to 5 locations with unlimited SKUs and reorder alerts. Since TrackItWeekly replaces the need for multiple Clover App Market subscriptions, most Clover users actually save money by consolidating their inventory workflow into one tool.
