The Basket is your workspace for inventory replenishment. It allows you to freely add products from different parts of the platform, review and adjust details, and convert them into organized purchase orders in just a few clicks.
Tightly handles supplier-location grouping, MOQ, and batch size logic automatically — so you can focus on making the right purchasing decisions.
1. Adding Products to the Basket
You can add products to the basket from several areas in the platform:
From the Products Table
Go to the Inventory view.
Select one or more variants.
From Quick Actions bar, Click “Add to Basket.”
This method is ideal when you already know which items need replenishing.
From the Supplier Product Catalog
Open a supplier's page.
Select the variants you want to reorder.
Click “Add to Basket.”
Use this when placing POs with a specific supplier.
From the Smart Replenishment Page
Visit the Smart Replenishment view.
Review Tightly’s recommended SKUs based on inventory performance.
Select relevant items and add them to the basket.
This is best when you want data-driven suggestions on what to reorder.
2. Reviewing and Editing the Basket
Inside the Basket, you’ll see a table with all selected items. You can:
View each product’s variant, cost, lead time, and quantity.
Edit quantities directly in the table.
Change the assigned supplier using the dropdown (Applicable if a product is assigned to multiple suppliers.).
Filter by supplier, location, and other product details.
See a live calculation of your total basket amount.
3. Converting the Basket into Purchase Orders
Select the products you want to create a purchase order for and click “Convert to Orders” when you're ready.
Tightly will:
Automatically group items by supplier-location combinations.
Evaluate quantities against each item’s Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) and Batch Size.
If any items don't meet those requirements, you'll be taken to a review step.
4. Resolving MOQ and Batch Size Issues
Before finalizing the POs, you'll have a chance to resolve issues for items that:
Fall below the supplier's MOQ.
Don’t meet the batch size multiple.
Tightly will suggest the nearest compliant quantity.
You can:
Apply all recommendations with one click.
Adjust values manually.
Exclude a PO from being created if necessary.
A checkbox is available to show only the items needing adjustment.
5. Previewing the Purchase Orders
Once all issues are resolved (or skipped), you'll see a summary of purchase orders grouped by supplier and delivery location. Each PO includes:
Supplier name
Destination location
Number of items in the PO
This step gives you full visibility before confirming.
6. Final Confirmation
Click “Confirm and Convert to Orders” to finalize the POs.
You’ll see a success message showing:
Purchase Order IDs
Supplier names
Delivery locations
From here, you can return to the Basket or go to the Purchase Orders section to review further.
Tips and Notes
You can remove individual items from the basket at any time using the “×” icon.
Your basket state is auto-saved — you can leave and return later.
If needed, click “Empty Basket” to clear all selections and start fresh.
Filtering by supplier, cost, or lead time helps narrow large baskets quickly.
