Send Planner: Send stock
Once the numbers on the Plan tab look right, these pages turn them into real shipments. You set the stock aside at your warehouses, create one shipment draft per network and warehouse, and finish each draft in the network's own screens. Where your warehouses can't cover a network, you can order from a supplier that delivers straight to it, or close the gap with a purchase order, production or a kit build.
Nothing here sends stock or submits anything to Amazon, Walmart or TikTok on its own. Every draft and purchase order is a draft until you finish it.
Choose how to send
There are three ways to turn the plan into drafts. They all end in the same shipment drafts.
| Way | Best for | Approval | Covers supplier POs | Can be scheduled | Go to… |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Draft shipments on the Plan tab | One-off or urgent SKUs, or the whole plan when you've checked it yourself | None | No; use Draft supplier POs separately | No | Create shipment drafts |
| A send run on the Send runs tab | The weekly routine, with exceptions decided and each network reviewed | Per network, shared with everyone on the run | No | Yes | Work through a send run |
| Review AI plan on the Plan tab | A plan you trust, sent the fastest way | One click for everything | Yes | No | Approve the AI send plan |
