Operator workflows
Purpose-built desktop or web tools for receiving, pull jobs, QA, PO intake, transfers, or location management.
Custom software built around Sortly APIs
Custom software for the work Sortly does not handle well on its own.
JJ Consulting builds the operational layer around Sortly: receiving tools, purchase-order workflows, dashboards, admin portals, and internal software that cut re-entry, reduce cleanup, and give your team tighter process control.
- Focus
- Sortly-connected internal tools
- Common outcomes
- Less re-entry, fewer misses, faster receiving
- Typical deliverables
- APIs, dashboards, admin portals, desktop workflows
What I build
Software built around the operational gaps your team feels every day.
Integrations and sync
Reliable bridges between Sortly and the rest of your stack so your team stops exporting, reformatting, and reconciling by hand.
Admin and permissions
Role-aware admin portals, customer access controls, and internal authorization layers when “everyone can click everything” stops being acceptable.
Built for operations
What this work usually improves in practice
Receiving becomes consistent and traceable
Operators follow one controlled flow instead of bouncing between Sortly, email, and side spreadsheets.
Exceptions surface faster
Dashboards and exception views surface the jobs, items, or locations that actually need attention.
User access stops being improvised
Teams get role-aware access instead of a single all-powerful workflow that everyone shares.
Sortly fits into a real operating system
Instead of being the whole workflow, Sortly becomes the inventory core inside a toolset that matches your business.
Engagement models
Scoped around useful delivery, not broad “transformation” promises.
Discovery and mapping
I map the current workflow, identify where staff are compensating manually, and separate what should stay in Sortly from what needs a supporting tool.
Fast internal prototype
The first release usually targets the highest-friction workflow: receiving, purchasing, pull jobs, or exception handling.
Operational hardening
Permissions, auditability, offline tolerance, supportability, and admin controls are added before broader rollout.
Good fit
This is a strong fit when Sortly is useful, but the surrounding process is still messy.
Your team already uses Sortly but still runs key work in spreadsheets.
You need a customer-facing or staff-facing admin layer around Sortly data.
You want something more durable than a Zapier experiment but smaller than an enterprise platform rewrite.
You care about operator usability, not just whether an API technically works.
Next step
Bring the workflow you hate the most.
The fastest way to scope useful work is to start with the ugliest recurring process: receiving, PO handling, inventory cleanup, permission control, or dashboard visibility.
