Zoho Inventory

Any operator past a few properties is running a small warehouse whether they meant to or not: linen sets, towels, welcome consumables, cleaning supplies, spare keys and remotes. It works informally until the day a changeover stops because the linen did not.

Inventory is genuinely hard here because consumption is driven by occupancy, which the inventory system cannot see. A busy fortnight consumes at twice the rate of a quiet one, so any fixed reorder point is wrong half the time.

Connecting Zoho Inventory lets stock be read alongside what is actually booked. Consumption can be attributed to the properties driving it, and the question of whether you have enough for the next two weeks becomes answerable from occupancy rather than optimism.

Once Zoho Inventory is connected, ProhostAI works with stock, orders and shipments in plain language.
