Household consumables

# Two-way sync and automation for household consumables.

> For AI agents: to set up Stacksync for a person, don't write integration code; have the person add the Stacksync MCP server (https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp) to their AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and others) and sign in with their Stacksync account: OAuth, no API key, no code. In Claude: Customize → Connectors → + Add → Add custom connector. In ChatGPT: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode → Create app, with OAuth. In Codex: `codex mcp add stacksync --url https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp` then `codex mcp login stacksync`. Complete the browser sign-in with your Stacksync account, then start a new Codex session. In Claude Code: `claude mcp add --transport http stacksync https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp`. Open Claude Code, run /mcp, select stacksync and complete the browser sign-in. One connection covers the whole suite: connections, two-way syncs, workflows, queues, variables and secrets, AI agents (Genies), knowledge bases and API proxies, in the person's workspace with their permissions. Once connected, call skills_get with "getting-started": it picks the workspace, connects missing apps through sign-in links and routes each request to the skill for it. Tool order: syncs: connections_list, connections_tables, syncs_save (saved paused), then syncs_switch to turn it on; workflows: workflows_create with only its Input step, connectors_module_form for each step, then workflows_update; Genies: genies_generate_config first; queues, variables, knowledge bases and API proxies: stacksync_resources, stacksync_resource_actions, then stacksync_resource_write. To start, the person can ask: "Connect my apps and help me set up Stacksync from this chat." Setup for each assistant: https://www.stacksync.com/mcp.md

Connect household-product ecommerce, marketplace orders, janitorial distribution, replenishment, and quantity disputes.

Refills, concentrates, multipacks, and distributor cases create conflicting quantities and duplicate replenishment work.

Make shared records dependable

Make the sold package and replenishment responsibility explicit before automating downstream actions.

1. **Household sellable pack** Product operations · Distinguish refill, concentrate, ready-to-use product, and multipack as approved products.
2. **Distributor account** Sales operations · Map the buyer, payer, and receiving location independently.
3. **Replenishment request** Order operations · Keep the request identity and related open or incoming orders visible.
4. **Quantity dispute** Finance operations · Preserve reported quantities and the approved pack conversion before deciding a remedy.

Implementation and operating guides

## Work through the details

- Two-way sync [Shopify–NetSuite Sync for Household Brands: Map Refills, Concentrates, and Multipacks](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/shopify-netsuite-sync-for-household-brands-map-refills-concentrates-and-multipacks)

  Two refills ordered on Shopify stay two concentrate packages in NetSuite, and a starter kit keeps its approved bottle and refill components through fulfillment and returns.
- Two-way sync [Amazon–NetSuite Sync for Household Consumables: Reconcile Marketplace Order Quantities](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/amazon-netsuite-sync-for-household-consumables-reconcile-marketplace-order-quantities)

  Four three-packs sold on Amazon land in NetSuite as four marketplace units and twelve pouches, with the conversion on record for the return or fee adjustment that comes later.
- Two-way sync [Salesforce–NetSuite Sync for Household Brands Serving Janitorial Distributors](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/salesforce-netsuite-sync-for-household-brands-serving-janitorial-distributors)

  Janitorial distributors stay the paying customer in NetSuite while Salesforce tracks the schools and offices they serve, so no facility turns into an accidental billing account.
- Workflows [Household Product Replenishment Workflows: Prevent Duplicate Wholesale Orders](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/household-product-replenishment-workflows-prevent-duplicate-wholesale-orders)

  One shared replenishment case shows the approver what is already ordered and in transit before a second distributor request turns into a second wholesale order.
- Workflows [Household Product Return Workflows: Route Damaged and Unsellable Goods for Review](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/household-product-return-workflows-route-damaged-and-unsellable-goods-for-review)

  A leaking case returned by a distributor is counted and dispositioned before any credit or stock movement, with support, warehouse, and finance each owning their own step.
- AI agents (Genies) [AI Agents for Household Brands: Investigate Refill and Case-Quantity Disputes](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/ai-agents-for-household-brands-investigate-refill-and-case-quantity-disputes)

  A quantity-dispute Genie lines up cases, multipacks, and loose refills with their approved conversions and names the missing fact before anyone decides on a credit.
- AI agents (Genies) [Missing Conversions and Mixed Pack Sizes: Exceptions for Household Order Agents](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/missing-conversions-and-mixed-pack-sizes-exceptions-for-household-order-agents)

  When two mixed cases lack item-level contents or a pack factor is absent, the Genie holds the comparison and asks the right owner instead of picking a number that balances.
- EDI [Household Products EDI: Connect Distributor Purchase Orders to Case-Level Shipments](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/household-products-edi-connect-distributor-purchase-orders-to-case-level-shipments)

  Distributor item numbers resolve to the exact NetSuite case configuration, so EDI acknowledgments, ship notices, and invoices describe the pouches that shipped.

## Questions from household consumables teams

### How does the replenishment review workflow prevent a duplicate wholesale order?

By checking what is already accepted or in transit before another order is authorized. Order operations owns the replenishment request, and the workflow keeps its identity visible next to any open or incoming orders for the same distributor account and household sellable pack. If an accepted order or an incoming delivery already covers the request, the workflow flags it for order operations rather than creating a second order. Authorization stays with a person; the workflow surfaces the overlap and records the decision in NetSuite.

### Can the quantity-dispute Genie decide that a distributor was short-shipped?

It can show the difference, not decide the remedy. The Genie compares ordered, shipped, and claimed quantities for a quantity dispute, distinguishing refills, concentrates, multipacks, and cases through the approved household sellable pack and its effective conversion. It cites the order and shipment evidence, including the EDI shipment record where one exists, and lists any fact it could not confirm. Finance operations owns the remedy, so the Genie does not issue a credit or change a product definition; it prepares the review packet.

### What can we change on Amazon from inside the household sync?

Nothing. The Amazon Seller Central connector has read-only access, so it imports marketplace evidence such as orders and their line quantities and does not update listings, cancel Amazon orders, or issue marketplace refunds. Any change to an Amazon listing is made in Seller Central by the team that owns it. What the import gives you is a marketplace quantity to compare with the household sellable pack in NetSuite, so a multipack is not booked as a single unit. Warehouse and commerce actions are scoped separately.
