For apparel planners

Can you deliver your current order book — by size?

Your ERP already holds the answer. It's just never netted it. Sherpa takes last night's orders, stock, allocations and inbound POs and shows you exactly what you can promise — per style, per colour, per size.

The weekly spreadsheet

Totals say you're covered.
Sizes say you're not.

Every apparel business has one: the deliverability spreadsheet. One person maintains it, it takes a day a week, nobody can audit it — and because it works in totals, it hides the only detail that decides whether an order ships complete.

1,000 units of stock against 1,000 units of demand is meaningless if the stock is XL and the demand is M.
What you get

The netted position your ERP never computes

Per size, per style

ATP for any style, at a glance

Pick a style and see demand against every supply state — free stock, QC, allocations, inbound POs — netted per size, with the style total alongside. Under 30 seconds, not a day a week.

Worst first

At-risk orders, ranked

Every sales order that can't ship complete, ordered by shortfall, value and due date — with the short sizes and the customer's priority right there. Work the real problems first.

No black boxes

Every number traceable

Each figure chains back to the source records it came from — the order lines, the stock locations, the POs. When a number surprises you, you can see exactly why.

How it works

Live by the morning meeting

Step 1

Your ERP pushes a snapshot

Overnight, your ERP sends orders, stock, allocations and open POs to Sherpa — outbound only, using the scheduled export framework it already runs.

Step 2

Sherpa nets it

Sizes are matched size-to-size, allocations netted against shipments, inbound POs counted toward supply — one consistent position across every warehouse.

Step 3

Your planners see the position

Fresh each morning with a visible "as of" time. Deliverability by size, at-risk orders ranked, ready before the first customer call.

Outbound only No inbound connections, no firewall changes, no agents inside your network. Your ERP pushes; nothing ever reaches in.
First connector

Built for StyleMan first

Sherpa connects through StyleMan's existing scheduled-push framework — the same mechanism it already uses to talk to B2B channels. To StyleMan, Sherpa is just another endpoint.

Running something else? The same deliverability view works from a scheduled CSV export — and more native connectors are on the way.

  • Connected in hours, not months — configuration, not a project
  • No changes to how you use StyleMan day to day
  • Your stock-location conventions mapped once, at onboarding
  • Per-company, per-warehouse, multi-tenant from day one
Beyond ATP

One connection. A growing set of workflows.

Deliverability is the first question Sherpa answers — not the last. The same data your ERP already pushes powers each of these, so every new workflow arrives as a switch-on, not a project.

Planned

This order is short — what are my options?

See each lever with its consequences — reallocate from a lower-priority order, pull a PO forward, split the shipment. You decide.

Planned

Which styles are broken on size?

Size-curve imbalance — long on XL, short on M — spotted across the range before it becomes markdowns and missed sales.

Planned

Where is stock sitting that isn't selling?

Aged and overstock detection — stock with no matching demand and no allocation, surfaced before it quietly ages out.

Planned

Is stock allocated to the right customers?

Allocation fairness — where committed stock contradicts your customer priorities, flagged before it ships.

Planned

Where should I be raising POs?

Open-to-buy coverage — demand not covered by stock or inbound orders, so purchasing starts from the actual gap.

Planned

Just tell me what to do.

Recommendations — learned from the calls your planners actually make, not a black-box model. Earned last, on purpose.

Each workflow reads the same canonical supply-and-demand picture — so the connection you set up once keeps paying for itself.
