BIN · 01 / 04 Shopify Plus ready · 1st paid plan gets 14 days free

Every SKU has an address.
Every pick list finds it.

BinTech subdivides Shopify's on-hand inventory into physical bin locations — so your pickers know exactly where to walk, and your counts never drift from what's actually on the shelf.

Multi-location
Per-warehouse bins with 3PL exclusion built in.
Pick strategies
Priority, single-bin, or consolidate-empty.
Reconciliation
Variance bin catches every external change.
FEATURES

Built for the floor, not the dashboard.

BinTech doesn't replace Shopify's inventory — it subdivides it. Every feature is designed for the people who actually walk the aisles.

01

Bin-level tracking

Every variant lives at one or more named bins. Configurable, searchable, and unique per location.

02

Automated pick lists

FulfillmentOrder webhook fires → BinTech generates a location-scoped pick list the moment Shopify routes an order.

03

Multi-location, first-class

Collapsible sections per warehouse, per-location inventory, and 3PL exclusion for anything managed by ShipBob or FBA.

04

Three picking strategies

Priority order, single-bin preference, or pick-to-empty. Chosen per shop, overridable per pick list.

05

Cycle counts & audits

Lock bins, count physical stock, reconcile with Shopify on confirmation. Every movement logged with who, when, and why.

06

Variance reconciliation

POS sale, damaged stock, surprise shipment? The variance bin catches every external change and surfaces it for review.

WORKFLOW · ORDER → FULFILL

One order, five states, zero drift.

Every event that can change your inventory — order placement, picking, fulfillment, POS sales, returns — has a defined handler. Bins and Shopify's on-hand stay in lockstep.

  1. T1 Shopify

    Order placed

    Shopify routes the order. FulfillmentOrder webhook fires with the assigned location.

  2. T2 BinTech

    Pick list generated

    BinTech picks bins by strategy, subtracts active reservations, and writes a shareable list — no login required for pickers.

  3. T3 Warehouse

    Worker picks from bins

    Pickers tick items off on a mobile-friendly view. Items can be reassigned to a different bin mid-pick if stock shifted.

  4. T4 BinTech

    Pick list COMPLETED

    All items picked. Bins still reserved. Awaiting merchant confirmation in Shopify.

  5. T5 Shopify

    Order fulfilled

    orders/fulfilled webhook decrements bins for picked items only. Unpicked items become variance for review.

THE PRODUCT · 06 SCREENS

Designed by warehouse people, for warehouse people.

Every screen is mirrored inside the Shopify admin — your team never leaves the tool they already use for everything else.

PRODUCTS
BinTech products page showing bin status and allocation columns
Every variant tagged Configured, Not configured, or Excluded. Allocation column reads Matched, +N over, or −N under at a glance.
BIN LOCATIONS
Bin locations page with collapsible sections per warehouse
Collapsible sections per Shopify Location. Same bin name allowed across warehouses — bin identity is location-scoped.
PICK LIST
Pick list detail page grouped by bin
Items grouped by bin. Tick as picked, reassign to another bin at the same location, or mark all picked in one action.
SETTINGS
Settings page with picking strategy and 3PL exclusion controls
Choose your picking strategy, configure what happens to unpicked items on fulfill, and exclude 3PL locations from BinTech workflows.
RECONCILIATION
Inventory reconciliation page showing variance items
Every external change — POS sales, damaged stock, unexpected returns — surfaces here. Allocate to a bin or dismiss the discrepancy.
CYCLE COUNTS
New cycle count modal with selection criteria
Audit by oldest-first, high-velocity, or manual selection. Bins lock during the count, syncing discrepancies to Shopify only on your confirmation.
PICKING · 03 STRATEGIES

Pick the way your warehouse actually runs.

Every warehouse has a different geometry. BinTech ships three strategies out of the box — pickable per shop and overridable per pick list, until the order is in progress.

STRATEGY · 01 01

Priority

Pick in the order you built.

Walk the aisle in a defined sequence. Best for warehouses with an established picking route or rack logic.

STRATEGY · 02 02

Single bin

One stop if possible.

Prefer the bin that holds the full order quantity. Falls back to priority when no single bin can fulfill.

STRATEGY · 03 03

Pick-to-empty

Consolidate as you go.

Empty the smallest bins first. Frees storage over time and keeps your inventory naturally condensed.

THE DELTA PROBLEM · SOLVED

Shopify changed something. You'll know about it.

A POS sale. A damaged unit. A return you didn't know about. When Shopify's on-hand drifts from your bin totals, BinTech records a variance — with the SKU, the location, and the delta — and waits for you to allocate or dismiss it.

  • +N
    Positive variance. New stock arrived or a return landed. Shown as Unallocated — assign to a bin.
  • −N
    Negative variance. A sale or shrinkage somewhere in the warehouse. Deduct from a bin or dismiss the discrepancy.
