A bookstore inventory software is a secure online platform where bookstore staff and managers can log in to view, update, and manage all aspects of book inventory. It keeps important information—like stock levels, new arrivals, sales reports, and supplier details—in one place, eliminating the need for scattered spreadsheets or manual paperwork. This makes it easier to stay organized, quickly check inventory status, and provide better service to customers.
Softr makes it simple to build a bookstore inventory software that matches the unique needs of your bookstore. You can connect your inventory data from sources like Airtable, Notion, or SQL, and set up a portal where staff can log in, check stock levels, update book details, record sales, and manage orders—all in one place.
You don’t have to write any code. Start with a template or build your own layout, customize who can see or edit certain information, and brand the portal to fit your bookstore’s style. It’s quick to launch, easy to update, and flexible enough to grow as your store’s needs change. This helps your team stay organized and keeps your inventory management looking professional.
You can add a variety of features to your bookstore inventory software, depending on how your store operates. Popular options include:
\- User logins – so each staff member has secure access to the inventory
\- Custom dashboards – to display current stock levels, sales trends, and new arrivals
\- Forms – for adding new books, updating existing entries, or recording restocks
\- File sharing – to upload purchase orders, supplier invoices, or promotional materials
\- Search and filters – to quickly find specific titles, authors, or categories
\- Tables, lists, and detail views – to organize and display inventory records
\- Comments or status updates – to keep notes on book orders or supplier communication
\- Charts – for visualizing sales performance or stock turnover
\- Calendar view – to track upcoming deliveries or inventory checks
\- Permissions and roles – so managers and staff only see the data relevant to them
All these features can be created using Softr’s drag-and-drop tools, so you don’t need to code. And as your bookstore grows or your process changes, it’s easy to update the software.
No coding is needed. You can build your bookstore inventory software entirely using Softr’s visual editor. Everything from the layout to user permissions can be customized without writing any code at all.
Yes. You can manage multiple bookstores or inventory teams in a single system. Each user only sees the inventory data and management tools assigned to them, based on their login and role. This is especially helpful if you oversee several locations, departments, or manage different staff groups within your bookstore operation.
Softr supports a variety of data sources, making it flexible for bookstore inventory management. You can connect to Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, HubSpot, ClickUp, Xano, Supabase, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, BigQuery, and more. You can also bring in inventory or sales data from other systems using the REST API.
You aren't limited to just one: multiple data sources can be integrated into your inventory software and displayed together—so, for example, you could track inventory from Google Sheets and sales from Airtable all in one place. Many sources support real-time, two-way sync, so your inventory data stays up to date across your whole system.
Yes, Softr gives you full control over how users interact with your bookstore inventory software. You can tailor the layout, navigation, and content to fit your bookstore’s workflow and branding. Each page or section can be shown or hidden based on who’s logged in, so each staff member or manager sees only the inventory data relevant to their role.
You can set up different user roles, like inventory manager, cashier, or admin—and define exactly what each role can view or update. For example, sales staff might only see current stock levels, while managers can access inventory reports and reorder books. You can also create personalized dashboards and filtered views based on who’s logged in.
This customization makes it easy to manage multiple locations or teams, keeps sensitive data secure, and ensures each user has a streamlined experience.
Yes, you can. You don’t need to import data from another source to start using your bookstore inventory software with Softr. If you’re starting from scratch, you can use Softr Databases, which is integrated into the platform and works seamlessly with your inventory management application.
If you do have existing data in tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, Supabase, or SQL, you can easily connect those as well. You can also use the REST API connector to bring in data from other systems. Either way, you have full control over how your inventory data is organized and displayed in your software.
Yes, you can fully white-label your bookstore inventory software in Softr. You can use your own logo, brand colors, fonts, and custom domain to make the inventory portal feel like a seamless extension of your bookshop's identity. You also have the option to remove all Softr branding, so your staff or partners only see your bookstore’s unique branding throughout the experience.
Yes, you can. Softr offers a lot of flexibility when it comes to designing and structuring your bookstore inventory software. You can tailor colors, fonts, spacing, and page layouts to fit your bookstore’s style. You’re free to arrange pages, choose which blocks appear where, and define what different users—like inventory managers or staff—see when they log in.
To display your inventory data, you can use various block types to fit your needs:
\- Table blocks – to show book inventories, orders, or shipment tracking
\- List or Card blocks – to highlight featured titles, genres, or supplier contacts
\- Detail View – to show information about a single book or inventory item
\- Forms – for adding or updating inventory records
\- Charts – to visualize sales or inventory trends
\- Calendar blocks – to track restocking dates or events
If you need to update your content or layout later, you can easily make changes right in the visual builder.
Softr is designed with security as a top priority. All data in your bookstore inventory software is encrypted during transmission (TLS) and when stored, and your app runs on secure, reliable infrastructure. Softr also lets you fully control who can access your inventory software and what actions they can take. You can create role-based permissions for your team, manage users within your data source, set visibility rules, and apply global restrictions to protect sensitive information, such as supplier lists or sales figures.
If your inventory software connects to external data sources like Airtable, Notion, or SQL, Softr doesn’t store your data—it simply displays it in real time according to your access rules. You retain full control over your data and who can view or update it.
Softr follows industry best practices for authentication, access control, and platform security monitoring to help keep your bookstore’s information safe.
You can start for free. Softr’s Free plan lets you publish one app—with up to 10 users and 2 user groups—and supports all standard data sources like Softr Databases, Airtable, Google Sheets, and more.
