How to Export Your Stocky Data Before August 31, 2026
Right now, in July 2026, Stocky still works normally — you can create and edit purchase orders like any other day. But the runway is short. Stocky was removed from the Shopify App Store on February 2, 2026 (no new installs), and on August 31, 2026 the app stops working entirely, API included. Shopify says you'll then have read-only access to export your data for at least 90 days after that — but a "should still work" window is not a plan. Export now, while everything still works normally, rather than betting on the post-shutdown grace period.
This guide covers what you actually need to capture: supplier records (which Stocky can't export — you'll need to document these manually), product-to-supplier assignments, open purchase orders, stock counts, and sales history — each with real caveats Stocky doesn't warn you about. We will also cover what Stocky does not let you export, and what to do about it.
This post expands on Shopify's official migration guidance with the practical order to do things in and the gotchas it doesn't spell out.
What You Can Still Export from Stocky
Stocky works normally today — you can still create and edit purchase orders, run reports, and use the app as usual. Once it shuts down on August 31, 2026, Shopify says you'll have read-only access to your data for at least 90 days to export what's left. Here is what you can actually pull, and what you can't:
| Data Type | How to Export | File Format | What It Contains |
|---|---|---|---|
| Suppliers | Not exportable — document manually | — | Screenshot or rekey names, contacts, emails, addresses, terms into a spreadsheet |
| Product Assignments | Stocky → Reports → Products report → Export | CSV | Which products are linked to which suppliers — verify the column is actually populated |
| Open Purchase Orders | Download per PO, or Stocky → Reports → Purchase Orders report → Export | CSV | PO numbers, line items, quantities, statuses (records only — not re-importable) |
| Stock Counts | Stocky → Stocktakes → Export | CSV | Point-in-time snapshot only — Stocky doesn't retain stocktake history |
| Sales History | Stocky → Reports (Best Sellers, Sale Items, ABC Analysis, SKU/Variant, Statistics) | CSV / PDF | Sales by product/variant, velocity — cross-check with Shopify Admin → Analytics |
Important: Stocky does not provide a single "Export All" button. You must handle each data type separately — and, as you'll see below, one of them can't be exported at all.
Step 1: Document Your Suppliers (Stocky Can't Export Them)
Shopify confirms there is no supplier export from Stocky — not as CSV, not in any other format. Your supplier list has to be captured manually, now, while Stocky is still readable:
- Log in to Stocky from your Shopify admin and open Suppliers.
- Go through each supplier record and write down its name, contact, email, address, and terms — a screenshot per supplier, or rekeyed into a spreadsheet, both work.
- Save the spreadsheet (or screenshots) to a folder named
Stocky-Backup-[Today's Date].
Don't be fooled by the "Supplier reports" performance report. Stocky's reporting area has a separate report (things like low-stock-by-vendor) that's exportable as CSV — but it is not a supplier master list or contact-list export. It won't give you emails, addresses, or terms. Don't rely on it to reconstruct your supplier records; it's a performance report, not a backup.
Step 2: Export Product-to-Supplier Assignments
- In Stocky, go to Reports.
- Open the Products report.
- Export it as CSV.
- Save to the same backup folder.
What to check: This CSV should tell you which variant is supplied by which vendor. If you have 500 SKUs and 20 suppliers, this file is what prevents you from re-linking everything by hand — but verify the Supplier column is actually populated. Assignment data in this report can be inconsistent, so don't assume it's complete just because the export ran successfully.
If assignments are missing: Some merchants never set these up in Stocky, and some assignments simply don't show up in the export even when they exist. If your CSV has blank supplier columns, you will need to map suppliers manually in your new tool. Do this now, while Stocky is still readable.
Step 3: Export Open Purchase Orders
There's no single filtered bulk-export button for POs. You have two options, and most stores will want both:
- Download individual POs. In Stocky, go to Purchases, open each PO you care about, and use Download → CSV. Slower, but exact.
- Use the Purchase Orders report. In Stocky, go to Reports → Purchase Orders. This report shows status, delivery, and payment fields, and can be filtered (for example, to open or partially received orders) before you export it as CSV.
What to check: Verify that PO numbers, supplier names, product variants, quantities ordered, quantities received, and status are all present. A partially received PO should show both the ordered quantity and the received quantity.
Why this matters: If you switch to a new app mid-PO, you need to know what is still in transit. Losing this data means guessing what you are waiting for.
One-way trip: however you export them, historical POs cannot be re-imported into Shopify's native inventory once they're out of Stocky. Treat this export as your record for reference, not as data you'll feed back into Shopify itself.
Step 4: Export Stock Count History (Optional but Recommended)
- In Stocky, go to Stocktakes.
- Click Export.
- Save the CSV.
What to check: Count dates, counted quantities, expected quantities, and variance values. This history is useful for auditing and for setting reorder points in your new tool.
Important caveat: Stocky does not save historical inventory data — the CSV you download is only a point-in-time snapshot of whatever it shows at the moment you export it. Export during or immediately after each stocktake, not weeks later, or the numbers you capture won't reflect the count you actually did.
Step 5: Export Sales History (Stocky and Shopify)
Stocky does have exportable sales reports — Best Sellers, Sale Items (sales by product/variant), ABC Analysis, SKU/Variant, and Statistics, available as CSV or PDF. Export the ones relevant to your store from Stocky → Reports.
- In Stocky, go to Reports and export Sale Items (and Best Sellers or ABC Analysis if useful to you) as CSV.
- Then cross-check against Shopify Admin → Analytics → Reports, running Sales by product for the last 12 months.
- Export the Shopify report as CSV too.
- Also run Sales by product variant in Shopify if your new tool forecasts at the variant level.
Save both sets in your backup folder. Shopify's Analytics reports are where this data permanently lives once Stocky is gone, and it's what most Stocky replacements (including Reorderly) pull automatically on install — but a local copy of both is cheap insurance.
What Stocky Does NOT Let You Export
| Data | Export Path | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| Reorder point settings | No documented export path | Screenshot or write them down manually |
| Custom reports | No documented export path | Rebuild in your new tool |
| User permissions / roles | No documented export path | Set up fresh in new tool |
| Integration settings | No documented export path | Reconnect manually |
| Historical forecasting data | No documented export path | Not needed — new tool generates its own |
Do not panic about missing data. The critical items — supplier records, product-supplier assignments, and open POs — are what you need to keep operating, and all three are covered above (even though suppliers means documenting rather than exporting). Everything else is rebuildable.
What to Do With These Files
- Store them in two places: Your computer + cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox).
- Name them clearly:
Stocky-Suppliers-2026-07-26.csv, notexport(1).csv. - Do not edit the CSVs. Keep the originals. Make copies if you need to clean data.
- Open them in a spreadsheet to verify they look correct before August 31.
Migrating to a New Tool
Once you have your exports, you need a Stocky replacement. Most merchants are looking for:
- Reorder alerts based on sales velocity
- Purchase order creation + PDF export
- Receiving against POs
- Stock counts
- One-click import of the data you just exported
We built Reorderly for this exact migration. It connects to your Stocky account and pulls the suppliers you couldn't export yourself, plus product assignments and open POs, in one click — the full Stocky migration, on Starter, $19/mo (a founding price locked in if you install before September 30, 2026). The Free plan covers your first 50 SKUs if you'd rather bring your own supplier list first and try Reorderly before paying anything.
Not ready to switch? That is fine. Export your data now, decide later. The export takes 15 minutes. Losing your data takes years to recover from.
Quick Checklist
- Suppliers documented manually (Stocky can't export them)
- Product assignments exported to CSV, and Supplier column verified as populated
- Open purchase orders exported (per-PO download or Purchase Orders report)
- Stock counts exported to CSV during/right after a stocktake (optional)
- Stocky sales reports exported, plus Shopify sales history (12 months)
- Files saved in two locations
- Files opened and verified for completeness
- Reorder points / min-max values noted manually (if used)
