Cogsy vs Inventaly

Inventaly is an inventory and landed cost platform: purchase orders, receiving, supplier invoices read from email, freight and duty allocated into a landed cost per unit, and stock synced with Shopify. Cogsy handles none of the purchasing or stock. It keeps dated costs per supplier and kind and writes one figure to Shopify.

How Inventaly handles product cost

The listing says Inventaly allocates freight, duties and fees into a true landed cost per unit, with costs taken from supplier invoices linked to purchase orders. The costing method named in the plan details is weighted average cost tracking; FIFO is not mentioned. The Landed Cost plan lists 'Cost push to Shopify', so it writes a cost to Shopify, though the listing does not say which field or when. The listing does not state how extras are allocated (by value, quantity or weight).

What Inventaly does that Cogsy does not

Purchase orders and receiving
Supplier invoice extraction by email, linked to POs
Landed cost allocation of freight, duties and fees
Stock sync with Shopify, reconciliation and oversell buffers
Low stock alerts and multi-store support
