# Quick Actions

> Everyday counter tasks — taking in stock, ringing up walk-in sales, trades, and quick lookups — each as its own page under Quick Actions in the sidebar.

Everyday counter tasks — taking in stock, ringing up walk-in sales, trades, and quick lookups — each as its own page under Quick Actions in the sidebar.

**Where to find it:** [Open Quick Actions in AIM](https://aimventory.com/quick-actions/trade) — you will be asked to sign in first.

## What you can do here

* Add stock for one product fast with Single Product Intake (no full purchase order needed)
* Look up a pair on the spot with Inventory Search (by location or scan)
* Take in a trade and process it with Trade
* Ring up a walk-in buyer with In-Store Purchase (when your Shopify store is connected)
* Fix or overwrite a barcode/UPC and push it to Shopify with UPC Overwrite

| Action search             | Quick Actions Hub | Finds a shortcut by workflow name or keyword. | Use it when you know what you want to do but not where the page lives.                 |
| Action card               | Quick Actions Hub | Opens the selected workflow shortcut.         | Use it to jump into common work such as receiving, listing, pricing, or reporting.     |
| Category filter           | Quick Actions Hub | Narrows shortcuts to a workflow area.         | Use it when browsing available actions by operations, inventory, sales, or admin work. |
| Recent / Favorite actions | Quick Actions Hub | Shows shortcuts you use often or recently.    | Use it for repeated daily workflows.                                                   |

## How to: Add stock for a single product

1. Open Quick Actions in the sidebar, then choose Single Product Intake.
2. Find the product (search by name or SKU), then pick the size.
3. Enter how many pairs came in and what they cost you.
4. Save — the units are added to your inventory right away.

<Tip title="Real-world example">
  Two pairs of Dunk Low Panda size 10 walked in at $90 each — open Single Product Intake, find the shoe, choose size 10, quantity 2, cost $90, save.
</Tip>

## How to: Look up a pair at the counter

1. Open Quick Actions → Inventory Search in the sidebar.
2. Scan the barcode or type the product/SKU.
3. Read off the size, on-hand count, and where it lives.

<Tip title="Real-world example">
  A customer asks if you have the Jordan 1 Bred in a 9.5 — open Inventory Search, scan or type it, and see the count and shelf location.
</Tip>

## How to: Ring up a walk-in sale

1. Open Quick Actions → In-Store Purchase (shown only when your Shopify store is connected).
2. Add the items the customer is buying.
3. Complete the sale — stock is deducted and the sale is recorded.

<Tip title="Real-world example">
  Someone buys a pair off the shelf in your shop — use In-Store Purchase so the sale flows through your connected store and your count stays correct.
</Tip>

## Good to know

* Each Quick Action is a full page under the Quick Actions sidebar group — open the tools you use most and leave them bookmarked.
* Some actions (In-Store Purchase, UPC Overwrite) only appear once your Shopify store is connected.
* Single Product Intake is for quick one-off additions; for a full shipment from a supplier, use a Purchase Order instead.
