  1. There's another thread which has just been posted, asking which is the best theme to use, and the reply was the community one because it will always support any updates. So my question is, although these themes work fine now, surely they won't support any new features that are released? So isn't it better to use the community theme and adapt it to your needs?

  2. @wakabayashi yes, I agree, a better built in supply order system is a must, plus the ability to be able to track stock coming in and out and an easy way to see the movement history. Before we used Inventory Planner we had no way of checking where stock errors were going wrong.

  3. @wakabayashi If the starting price of $99 a month is too much for anyone then they probably aren't big enough to need something as sophisticated as this though. We pay $199 a month but the time it saves us and the cost saving in always having the right amount of stock (never being out of stock or having too much) saves us thousands a month.

  4. I use Inventory Planner. https://inventory-planner.com

    It is absolutely superb and by far and away the best thing I have found to handle re-ordering and receiving stock, but it's not cheap (depending on how many SKUs you have).

    I set it to sync stock levels with PS every morning at 8am. Then when I want to order, I select the supplier and set how many days I want stock for. It will then automatically generate a purchase order with recommended quantities which you can adjust by seeing a graph of sales for that product over the last year. It will also recognise seasonal trends and adjust recommendations accordingly.

    It also has statistics on every product which makes our yearly forward orders so much easier, and you can see exactly when products came into stock and when they were sold. It will also tell you which products are moving slowing and may need a price adjustment.

    If you are a reasonable sized business then I would highly recommend it for improving your automation and the sync with PS works perfectly. I'm hoping when I switch my main site to TB in a few months time it will still work - I can't see why it wouldn't.

    Have a look at the demo and see what you think.

  5. I have always used https://www.pos-tpv.com/en/ with Prestashop and it has been excellent. We have a busy shop as well as website so we needed a decent POS. The one main advantage with this one over ROCK POS is that you can receive new stock through it and print your own barcodes.

    I have tested Rock on both Prestashop and thirty bees - it works fine on both but I prefer all the extra functionality of POS TPV.

    I have now migrated one of our websites to thirty bees and POS TPV is working fine with it. The support is also excellent.

    Hope this helps.

  6. Is anyone else having problems with the statistics? I still can't get them working. On my dashboard everything is zero. If I click on Stats > Stats on the left menu the stats dashboard is all zero. My visitor stats are also zero, as is sales and orders, best selling products etc (although the best sellers correctly appear on the front end).

    The only thing that seems to be working is the available quantities, catalog evaluation and product details.
