| POS context | Stocky POS UI extensions and reports used with Shopify POS | Manage inventory in-store from Shopify POS; if you used Stocky’s Transfers POS UI extension to receive stock, remove the tile from your Smart Grid | Shopify-connected inventory, purchasing, and cost — not a Stocky POS UI replacement |
Questions and answers
What happens to my Stocky data?
Shopify says merchants can export completed purchase orders, stocktake history, historical cost data, and individual adjustment records. After shutdown, Shopify states you'll have read-only access to export your data for at least 90 calendar days, guaranteed at least through November 29, 2026. Historical POs, stocktakes, and receiving history do not migrate into Shopify. Suppliers cannot be exported.
What does Shopify replace natively?
Shopify’s guide lists moving inventory across locations with transfers, tracking and receiving purchase orders from suppliers, adjusting inventory quantities, reporting on all historical inventory changes, and managing inventory in-store from Shopify POS. Confirm current Shopify workflows in Shopify’s own documentation.
What does Bazaroo add beyond native Shopify inventory?
Connect your Shopify store, then run purchasing, receiving, cycle counts, supplier records, and allocated landed cost in Bazaroo going forward. Keep the Stocky files Shopify tells you to export as your historical archive. Bazaroo does not import Stocky CSV files.
