Bulk stock editing
Find products and variations by name, SKU or ID. Filter inventory and save views. Set quantities or add and subtract units across selected products, with a reason and preview. Changed stock needs a fresh review.
CSV stock imports and inventory exports
Match spreadsheet rows by product ID or SKU, map columns and validate before importing. Larger imports can resume after interruption. Export filtered inventory and stock history for reports; use the separate import template for updates.
Stock history and low-stock checks
See recorded quantities before and after a change, reasons, users, sources and times. Follow supported WooCommerce stock events. Find low-stock products and edit thresholds; WooCommerce handles its normal low-stock emails.
Suppliers, purchase orders and receiving
Keep supplier contacts, product references and lead times. Create purchase orders with costs, delivery dates, PDF, print and CSV documents. Receive six of ten units now and leave four outstanding. Amend or cancel outstanding quantities while retaining received stock and history.
When Pro helps
The separate Pro add-on adds saved stocktakes, variance review, team and blind counts, replenishment suggestions, supplier comparisons and buying baskets. Sidebar Pro previews can be switched off.

Privacy
StockControls stores movement quantities, sources, WordPress actor IDs, reasons, supplier contacts, purchasing documents, receipt links, saved counts, private import source/results, saved views and local setup/warning preferences in the local store database. Imports and local PDF generation do not contact an external service. Authorized users can export records. Avoid unnecessary personal information in reasons and retain downloaded records appropriately.
External services and optional welcome choices
Free needs no account or external license. Welcome & privacy appears after a first eligible manual activation, with separate unchecked choices. Skip and saving neither choice send nothing; all Free tools remain available.
If selected, compatibility sharing sends your site domain (not its path), WordPress/PHP versions and site language to https://stockcontrols.com/newsletter-api/v1/plugin-welcome/. The independent newsletter choice sends your entered email and installed Free/Pro edition to that same service. Requests include a random connection ID, protected reporting token and consent version. The service receives the network address and records consent/report times. No customer, stock, order or supplier data is sent. Selected data refreshes at most weekly; email edition changes can refresh after an hour. A changed site URL pauses sharing.
New email subscriptions require confirmation. Tips and release news use a weekly schedule; occasional Pro offers can use the reported Free edition. Article emails, purchase personalization and campaign-link tracking start off. Existing subscriptions/preferences are preserved. Stop each sharing choice in Welcome & privacy; a failed removal can be retried. Confirmed subscriptions are separate: use Unsubscribe or Email preferences in a newsletter.
Reports expire after 90 days without activity, pending requests after 48 hours, confirmed subscriptions after at most 730 days; consent/suppression records may remain 180 days. Connection controls expire 90 days after the last accepted report; cancelling an existing connection does not extend this period. A cancellation received before enrollment may retain a minimal prevention record for up to 90 days. Cleanup scheduling, outages and backups affect physical deletion. Deactivation pauses reporting. Uninstall removes local welcome details without sending a request: stop sharing first to request remote removal. The service privacy policy is https://stockcontrols.com/privacy/. Optional welcome reporting and newsletter choices are explained at https://stockcontrols.com/newsletter/privacy. Paid Pro purchases have separate terms at https://stockcontrols.com/checkout/terms. Full data flow and WordPress privacy-tool behavior are described in README.md.
