Email documents into Stockroom

Forward packing slips, invoices and price lists to your store's own address - counts and cost changes arrive ready to review.

Every store gets its own Stockroom email address. Forward a supplier's packing slip, invoice or price list to it and the document arrives in Stockroom already read - counts matched to your purchase order, or cost changes lined up for review. Nothing applies to your store until you confirm it. AI features are free during Early Access.

Find your address

  • Go to Settings > MCP & AI features.

  • Under Email documents in, click the address to copy it - it looks like your-store-x7k2p9@in.stockroom.app.

  • Forward supplier emails to it, or save it as a contact wherever your paperwork arrives.

What to forward

Attachments are what Stockroom reads - PDFs, photos and scans (png, jpg, gif, webp), and csv or txt files, up to 5 attachments and 10 MB each per email. The email body itself is ignored, so a plain forward is perfect.

Where documents land

  • A packing slip or invoice that cites one of your open PO numbers shows a banner on that purchase order (and on Home, with an Open PO button). Click Fill counts and the receive flow opens with each matched line's count filled from the document, capped at what's still outstanding - review, adjust, and receive as usual. The file is also attached to that purchase order, marked Emailed in on its Attachments card, so the paperwork stays with the order without anyone uploading it again.

  • A price list shows a banner on Home. Review cost changes opens the same review as the product-page dropzone: you see each proposed cost next to the current one and choose exactly which rows to apply.

  • Anything Stockroom can't match shows a Home notice with a Link to PO button: pick the open order it belongs to and the file is attached there, with the order's page offering to fill counts from it. Dismiss discards the document instead.

Every banner names what Stockroom read from the document - the supplier, the document number and date, and how many lines it found - so you can tell one arrival from another at a glance. View document opens the original file in a new tab, both on the banner and in the Link to PO window, so you can check the paperwork before you choose an order.

Matching works best when the supplier's document shows your PO number - it's on the PDF and in the email Stockroom sends them, so most paperwork cites it already.

Good to know

  • Nothing writes to your store from an email alone - counts wait in the receive flow for you to submit, and cost changes wait for your confirmation.

  • Dismissing a banner discards that document; forward it again if you change your mind.

  • Banners show recent arrivals - a document forwarded weeks ago won't wait around forever.

  • The address is unique to your store. Anyone who has it can send documents into your review queue (never into your inventory), and inbound volume is capped per hour - but treat it like a private address. Documents are read by AI; the disclosure lives on the same settings page.
