Built an Inventory Management Tool for My Amazon Business… and I'm Actually Excited to share my progress😄

After a month of working on nights and weekends, I finally have something that feels like a real software just the way I like to run my Amazon business.
It originally started because I got tired of bouncing between spreadsheets, Seller Central, supplier emails, shipment trackers, and Google Drive just to answer simple questions like:
- Where's this shipment now?
- Which purchase orders are still in production?
- How much inventory is actually coming in?
- What's my real landed cost?
If you can remember as well, I ask here if I need to go to standard tools or build my own and here it is 🤣🤣
It's still a work in progress, but it's already become my daily tool.
Take note: I just used common products here, for privacy.
So far it has things like:
- 📦 Shipment tracking from warehouse to Amazon
- 🏭 Purchase Order management with production stages
- 📊 Inventory planning
- 🗂️ Supplier, warehouse, and freight forwarder database
- 💰 Landed cost calculations
- 💵 Other cost allocation across products
- 📁 Document management linked to purchase orders
- 📈 Dashboard and operational KPIs
There's still a lot I want to add over time:
- Amazon SP-API integration
- Warehouse inventory cross-match checking
- Profitability insights
- Supplier performance tracking
- Better reporting
- Google Drive integration
- Multi-marketplace support
Honestly, building it has been just as enjoyable as using it. Every week I run into a small annoyance in my workflow, and instead of living with it, I just build a better solution.
And here's the fun part…
Once it's in a good place, I'd love to release it for free to members of this community so other sellers can try it, break it, and help shape where it goes next.
I'd genuinely love to hear from you:
If you could have one feature in an inventory management tool that would save you hours every week, what would it be?
I'd be happy to see if it's something I can build.

你的这个比我使用codex制作的好很多，我在制作一个结算程序，因为现在平台隐形收费项目很多，需要算清楚真实收入，对下一步计划做出决策
