Migrating
Bring your history with you.
A new inventory tool is only worth the switch if it starts out knowing what you already know. Stocked imports what it can, rebuilds what it can from Shopify, and tells you plainly what it can't.
Connect the store
Stocked reads your catalogue, locations, inventory levels and order history from Shopify. Nothing is written back until you ask it to.
Shopify's API serves an app the last 60 days of orders, so that is what Stocked starts with. Every order after you connect is kept permanently, so the window grows from day one. For the first couple of months, though, your forecasting is leaning on two months of sales, not two years.

Get an opening cost baseline
Where Shopify already holds a cost per item, Stocked reads it, so the margin column works before you've imported a single file. Your CSV then replaces it with what you actually paid.

Import the rest by CSV
Two importers. One takes suppliers with their costs, lead times and MOQs; the other takes an opening cost per variant. Every row is validated and shown to you before anything is committed.

Honestly
What comes across, and what doesn't.
Most of what you lose in a migration was never exportable in the first place. Worth knowing which half is which before you start, so you aren't spending a day hunting for an export that was never going to exist.
Where data genuinely can't be recovered, Stocked builds a starting point from Shopify and marks it as derived, so you can see which numbers are measured and which are inferred.
Coming from
Wherever you're moving from.
A spreadsheet
The most common starting point, and the easiest. Map your columns once in the import preview — SKU, supplier, cost, last order date — and Stocked validates every row before committing. Anything it can't parse is listed with the row number and the reason, and nothing is written until the whole file passes or you choose to skip the failures.
Stocky
Stocky has closed, and its supplier data was never exportable. That is a real constraint and no tool can undo it. Stocked works around it instead: costs come in as an opening cost per variant, and suppliers are entered once and then reused.
The supplier list is usually the only real re-typing job, and for most shops that's a couple of dozen rows. The Stocky export columns has the exact columns.
An inventory-planning app
Most export cleanly to CSV. Bring the supplier list and your per-variant costs. Leave the purchase-order history and the forecasts behind. Stocked recomputes the forecasts from your own Shopify order history, because it can't see how another tool arrived at its numbers.
An ERP you're keeping
Then keep it. The ERP stays the system of record and Stocked sits downstream of it. When your costs change, re-import them by CSV. There is no scheduled feed, so this is a file you upload rather than a pipe you configure. Stocked does the Shopify-side costing, forecasting and repricing, and doesn't ask you to move anything else.
Start where you are.
Stocked is not on the Shopify App Store yet. Join the founding list and we'll email you the day it is. Then connect the store, look at what your stock actually cost you, and decide whether the numbers hold up.
