Centralized Stock Visibility
Warehouse Management
Without proper warehouse organization, it's easy for teams to waste time locating items or make errors during picking and packing. Lack of accountability makes it hard to trace who moved what and when.
Finale supports detailed warehouse labeling and shelf/bin organization to streamline daily operations. With pick-and-pack workflows and user-level stock movement logs, your team can move faster—and you can always trace inventory activity. Finale lets you handle large and important operations in your warehouse with centralized purchase orders (POs), tracking supplier shipments, stock transfers, and conducting cycle counts.
Mobile Barcode Scanner Capability
Manual data entry during receiving, picking, and cycle counts slows operations and increases errors. Warehouse teams often struggle during times of sales spikes or large orders.
Finale’s mobile barcode scanner system enables fast, accurate receiving, picking, cycle counts, and stock transfers. Inventory updates stock levels as staff work—no spreadsheets or clipboards required. This powerful barcode scanner can also handle serialized inventory and lot IDs. Boost the speed and accuracy of your order fulfillment and cycle counts.
Demand Forecasting & Purchasing
Many sellers rely on guesswork without clear insight to reorder from suppliers or decide how much stock to transfer between locations.
Finale uses historical inventory and sales data to forecast inventory needs, helping you confidently place purchase orders or transfer stock where needed. It supports automated reordering, purchasing from multiple suppliers, and replenishment based on real-time inventory movement and needs, so you're always stocked at the right place and time. Get automated procurement recommendations and store all your purchasing and stock transfer data in one hub.
Order Management
Finale centralizes sales orders across all channels, whether you sell DTC or wholesale B2B. Sales orders flow through the system, syncing with inventory levels and updating in real time, keeping your team organized and your customers happy.
Sellers waste time juggling disconnected systems, manually syncing orders, and correcting inconsistent sales records, which leads to fulfillment delays, accounting headaches, and a poor customer experience.
Finale centralizes sales orders —whether from DTC channels like Shopify and Amazon, or wholesale B2B platforms—into a single, unified system. Orders automatically flow through Finale, syncing with real-time inventory levels and updating across all locations and channels. This ensures your operations stay aligned, your accounting stays accurate, and your team spends less time troubleshooting and more time delivering a seamless customer experience.
Finale Inventory. The Ultimate Inventory Management System.
Amazon FBA & AWD Inventory Management
Lack of visibility into FBA and AWD inventory can lead to stock discrepancies, missed transfers, and costly Amazon fees. Inventory issues cause poor account health and lost Amazon rank. Managing Seller Central and your other marketplaces in silo creates endless clicking and guesswork.
Finale's Amazon FBA & AWD inventory management software gives sellers real-time visibility, seamless stock syncing, and smart replenishment tools, all in one central hub—so you can avoid stockouts, reduce storage fees, and scale confidently.
Ecommerce Inventory Management System
Keeping stock levels accurate across multiple ecommerce selling channels and shipping systems is complex and time-sensitive. Poor syncing leads to misguided restocking, backorders, and negative customer experiences.
Finale syncs inventory across Shopify, Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and more. Every sale quickly updates your stock levels across all platforms, so you always know what’s available. Correct directly to your online storefronts, marketplaces, point of sale system (POS), and accounting software. Protect customer trust, avoid fulfillment headaches, and keep your operations running smoothly - no matter how many ecommerce marketplaces you sell on.
Kitting & Bundling
Managing kits and bundles manually can lead to inaccurate stock counts for both assembled kits and their component SKUs. This confusion slows down order fulfillment and complicates reordering.
Finale tracks child SKUs with automated kit calculations. Increase sales volume and encourage higher customer spend by offering kits and bundles.
Inventory Accounting
Misrespected inventory costs can throw off your COGS, distort margins, and lead to accounting chaos. Without accurate inventory bookkeeping, you lack visibility and sacrifice data-driven decisions.
Confidently manage your inventory bookkeeping with the power of an inventory accounting system. Gain clearer insight into how your inventory impacts your bottom line by syncing to QuickBooks Online.
Stock Auditing
Auditing inventory is a nightmare when serial numbers or lot IDs aren’t tracked properly. Inaccurate historical data makes it hard to track faulty products, verify losses, manage recalls, or prove stock movements.
Finale tracks serial numbers, lot IDs, expiration dates, and detailed stock history. You get a complete audit trail, so nothing falls through the cracks during cycle counts, reconciliations, or compliance checks.

An inventory management system example is a growing ecommerce business that sells on Amazon, Shopify, and eBay. Without a centralized system, they struggle with overselling, delayed fulfillment, and constant stock discrepancies across platforms. After implementing an IMS, they’re able to track inventory in real time, streamline order processing, and automate stock updates across all channels.
Finale Inventory is used by businesses like this to manage high-volume, multichannel operations with ease. It syncs inventory across marketplaces, gives you visibility over all your warehouses, supports mobile barcode scanning, and handles complex needs like Amazon FBA, kitting, reorder planning, and stock transfers—all from one cloud-based platform.
You can customize reports (documents) in Finale Inventory. Finale allows you to build custom reports by selecting a dataset (rows) and specifying which fields (columns) you want to display. You can also filter data, group and summarize it, and apply your own layout using page templates—similar to how an Excel spreadsheet works. This system enables you to generate reports like customized invoices, packing slips, COGS summaries, or general inventory summaries to match your specific business needs.
Reports are downloadable or can be emailed.
Excel works for basic inventory tracking when you're selling on a single channel with low sales volume and a limited SKUs. As your business grows, spreadsheets can’t keep up. They lack real-time updates, can’t connect to accounting platforms like QuickBooks Online or shipping tools like ShipStation, and force teams to re-enter the same data in multiple systems, leading to delays and errors. That’s why growing businesses use Finale's Inventory Management System (IMS).
Finale eliminates duplicate data entry by being your centralized inventory hub. It gives you a single automated system to track, manage, and scale your operations without spreadsheet chaos.
