The Challenge

The client was running a high-volume e-commerce store but struggling with manual inventory management. Stock levels were not updating across different warehouses in real-time, leading to overselling. Furthermore, the dispatch team was manually entering hundreds of orders daily into the RedX courier portal, causing a 20% error rate and significant shipping delays.

The Solution

Smart Dev architected a robust, centralized inventory system using Laravel 10. We developed a custom admin dashboard where stock levels are automatically adjusted the moment an order is placed.

To solve the shipping bottleneck, we built a secure REST API integration directly with the RedX system. Now, once an order is verified, a single click generates the consignment ID, prints the shipping label, and notifies the courier—all from within the custom dashboard.

Key Features Implemented

  • Real-time multi-warehouse inventory syncing.
  • Direct RedX API integration for one-click order dispatch.
  • Automated Cron Jobs to update tracking status every hour.
  • Role-based access control (Admin, Manager, Dispatcher).
  • Daily automated sales and inventory reporting via email.
