A stock portal with real-time stock insight .
Customers and partners see current stock 24/7, straight from your WMS or ERP. Nobody has to call anymore to ask whether something is in stock, and your team no longer has to look it up.
We have been sharing stock insight since 2008 .
The question is almost always the same: is it in stock and when can I have it? A phone call or email is too slow an answer for that. That is why we built InStock, our ready-made stock portal that we connect straight to your WMS or ERP.
If your needs go beyond showing stock, think of reserving, ordering or customer-specific assortments, we build the portal custom. Both routes run on the same integration layer that we have been refining for over sixteen years.
What changes with an stock portal ?
Concrete, for everyone who calls now and everyone who picks up now.
- Customers call or email for every stock check.
- Your team looks it up in the WMS and emails a screenshot back.
- Partners work with stock lists from yesterday, or last week.
- Coming up empty: ordering what is on paper but not physically there.
- Outside office hours there is simply no answer.
- Customers see current stock themselves, at any moment.
- Your team only gets called when something special is going on.
- Everyone looks at the same figure, straight from the source.
- What the portal shows is really there. One truth.
- Insight even at midnight and on weekends.
What a stock portal can do.
With InStock as a starting point or fully custom, these are the building blocks.
Real-time stock levels
Stock per item, location or batch, live from your WMS or ERP. Changes in the warehouse are visible in the portal within seconds to minutes.
Permissions per customer or partner
Every user sees only the assortment and locations that apply to them. Exact quantities for one, indications for another, you decide.
Search & filter
Quickly search by item number, EAN or description, filter by category or warehouse. The answer is there faster than your phone rings.
Expandable to custom work
Reserving, ordering, batch and best-before information or a connection with your customer portal. Start with InStock and grow on as your process demands it.
Systems we pull stock from .
We connect InStock and our custom portals to the WMS or ERP that is already in place. A selection of the packages we have connected before.
Oracle
Stock and location data from Oracle environments exposed in a lightweight front end.
Excel
The stock list that gets emailed around weekly now? The portal replaces it entirely.
From first call to live stock portal .
A fixed rhythm so you know where we stand, and why.
Process Scan
One hour, free. We look at who asks about your stock now, how often and where that data has to come from.
InStock or custom
If InStock fits, we take the short route. If your processes ask for more, we scope custom work. In both cases a fixed-fee quote up front.
Connect & configure
We connect the portal to your WMS or ERP, set up permissions and assortments and test with real stock movements.
Go-live
First a few customers or partners as a pilot, then invite broadly. We deliver the instructions, you keep control.
Management & monitoring
We watch the data flows and the freshness of the figures. If an integration gets stuck, we know before your customer does.
InStock: stock insight without a build project .
InStock is our ready-made stock portal, born from the custom portals we built for years for logistics providers and wholesalers. The lessons from those are built in as standard: permissions per user, fast search functions and integrations that can take a knock.
Because the foundation is in place, you go live weeks earlier than with custom work. And if you outgrow it, we build on the same foundation, without starting over.
- Proven product, running in production at several customers.
- Connected to your own WMS or ERP, your data stays the source.
- In your own house style, expandable towards custom work.
Frequently asked questions.
Wat kost een koppeling of portaal?
Dat hangt af van de stromen, systemen en schermen die meedoen. Na de gratis proces-scan krijg je een fixed-fee offerte: één vast bedrag voor een afgesproken scope. Geen uurtje-factuurtje met open eind en geen meerwerk-discussies achteraf.
Hoe lang duurt het voordat het live staat?
Een gangbare koppeling tussen twee systemen staat in 4 tot 6 weken op productie. Zwaardere trajecten, bijvoorbeeld met SAP, meerdere administraties of een datamigratie, lopen tot 8 weken of langer. Wat voor jou geldt, zie je vooraf terug in de planning.
How real-time is real-time stock insight really?
That depends on what your WMS or ERP offers. With webhooks or events a change is in the portal within seconds, with polling we work with short intervals of a few minutes. During the process scan we tell you honestly what your system makes feasible.
Can we decide per customer who sees which stock?
Yes. You arrange permissions per user or per organization: which assortment, which warehouses, and whether someone sees exact quantities or only an indication. A logistics provider can thus let each client see only their own goods.
What is the difference between InStock and custom work?
InStock is our ready-made stock portal: proven functionality, fast live, lower entry. You choose custom work when your process asks for more, such as reserving, ordering or a combination with a customer portal. Many customers start with InStock and grow on later, which works on the same foundation.
Hoe houden klanten of partners alleen hun eigen data zichtbaar?
Bij portalen isoleren we data strikt per klant of partner, met scope-isolatie en rollen. Iedereen ziet alleen zijn eigen orders, voorraad of documenten, nooit die van een ander.
Does the portal connect with our WMS or ERP?
Yes, that is the whole idea. The portal has no stock administration of its own, it shows what is in your system. Over the past years we connected with more than 40 packages, from Exact and AFAS to SAP and industry-specific WMS systems.
Can customers also order or reserve via the portal?
That is possible, as an extension. InStock focuses on insight, but as soon as your customers also want to reserve or order, we build that step on top, including writing orders into your ERP. This way the stock portal grows along into a full-fledged ordering portal.
Zit er onderhoud of een abonnement aan vast?
Na livegang bieden we beheer onder een SLA: monitoring, automatische retries en een vast aanspreekpunt. Wijzigt een systeem zijn API, dan vangen wij dat op. Je kiest zelf of je dat afneemt; verplicht is het niet.
Is it GDPR-proof?
Ja. Encryptie at rest en in transit, EU-hosting en een verwerkersovereenkomst horen er standaard bij. We verwerken alleen de gegevens die functioneel nodig zijn en hanteren heldere bewaartermijnen.
Waar draait de koppeling en wie beheert hem?
Op EU-hosting, beheerd door ons onder SLA. We monitoren de kritieke stromen met heartbeat-checks, draaien automatische retries en hebben een vast aanspreekpunt. Je kunt ook kiezen voor hosting in je eigen omgeving; dat bepalen we samen.
