Cin7 is cloud inventory management for product businesses: wholesalers, brands and light manufacturers that sell through several channels. It tracks products and stock across warehouses and stores, handles purchase and sales orders, and keeps the numbers in step with accounting tools such as Xero.
Stock questions come from many directions. Sales asks if an order can ship. The warehouse asks why a count is off. Maintenance asks whether the spare forklift tyres and packing machine blades are in. Each answer needs a search and some filtering. An AI agent connected through Agentic CMMS can do that search for anyone who is allowed to ask.
What your AI agent can do with Cin7
- Check availability by location. "How many units of the 500 ml bottle are available in the Auckland warehouse, not counting allocated stock?"
- Find low stock. "Which products and consumables are below their minimum level?"
- Follow a purchase order. "When is the PO from Hillside Packaging due, and has any of it been received?"
- Raise a purchase order. "Create a purchase order to Southern Industrial for twelve conveyor belts and six shrink-wrap blades."
- Look at stock movement. "What were the stock adjustments on stretch film last month, and who made them?"
- Check supplier lead times. "What is the usual time between ordering and receiving from our label supplier?"
- Review a product. "Show me the supplier, cost and reorder level for the pallet wrapper spare kit."
Cin7 with your other systems
When stock runs out, a machine or a vehicle usually waits. These connections show which.
- Match supplier bills in Xero or MYOB against Cin7 purchase orders for parts and consumables.
- Check that the spares listed on preventive jobs in Fracttal are in stock at the right site before the job date.
- Compare tyre and filter usage recorded in Fleetio with the stock levels held in Cin7.
- Find UpKeep work orders waiting for parts that Cin7 shows as already received.
Keeping the warehouse running, not just stocked
A distribution centre depends on its conveyors, wrappers and forklifts as much as on its products. The agent lets the operations team treat spares and consumables with the same discipline as sales stock, with early warning before a shortage stops the floor.
Operations managers can also ask the agent to watch consumption. It compares how fast spares and consumables leave the shelf with each supplier's lead time and shows what to reorder this week, so the next order goes out before the floor feels the gap. That is the same reorder thinking Cin7 already applies to the stock you sell.
Each person approves their own agent with read-only or read and write access. Owners and admins choose which roles may raise purchase orders, and every call is recorded in the activity log.
