Low-stock alerts, orders linked to the catalog, and goods-in that updates stock on receipt.
Customer care
The need
You want to remember what they have read, suggest something new, and track preferences without scattered notes.
How Booklane helps
Customer profiles with purchase history, internal notes, and checkout that enriches the record on every visit.
