Running operations on spreadsheets? Here's what comes next.
Spreadsheets got you here, and they're also why every count, PO, and margin number lives in a different tab. DOSS turns the models you already trust into one live record for inventory, purchasing, orders, and cost, without a general ledger rip-and-replace and without an IT project.
You've outgrown it when…
- 01
One person knows how the inventory sheet actually works, and they're on vacation.
- 02
You have 20 tabs for COGS, and landed cost is hand-keyed into QuickBooks monthly.
- 03
The 3PL portal and your sheet disagree, and you don't know which one is right.
- 04
A new channel or SKU means a new spreadsheet, and someone's weekend.
- 05
Month-end close takes a week because ops and finance reconcile from different numbers.
How we compare
How the switch works
- 01
Import
Your SKUs, suppliers, customers, BOMs, and costs come in from your sheets as Unified Master Data.
- 02
Connect
Shopify, your 3PLs, and QuickBooks or NetSuite connect natively; historical transactions load in.
- 03
Run in parallel
Live inventory and purchasing in DOSS alongside your sheets until the numbers match and the team trusts them.
- 04
Retire the tabs
Most brands are fully live in about eight weeks, module by module in the order that hurts most.
One number everyone runs on
Inventory, purchasing, orders, and cost share one data model, so a receipt at the 3PL, a PO approval, and a month-end valuation all update the same record. Ops and finance stop reconciling each other.
Margin you can see per SKU, not per quarter
Freight, duties, ingredients, and fulfillment fees roll into landed cost automatically on every transaction, so contribution margin by SKU and channel is live instead of a monthly project.

“We couldn't make strategic decisions in real time. And so that's when we knew we needed to make a switch to gain back that time and start using it towards something else rather than focusing all our time on managing a thousand spreadsheets.”
Antonio Landa, Senior Operations Manager Read the story Brands that made the move
Invoicing sometimes took a week. Steve and I would be here until midnight making little edits. Now I do it in a couple of hours.
A lot of other ERP systems were very rigid and you had to conform around what they'd already built. DOSS was pretty much the opposite. It was very flexible and it molded to our business processes.
