Using the Toolio Overlay

How to read the Product Stats panel, use collection-page chips and sorting, configure the overlay, and jump into Toolio.

Once the Toolio Overlay is installed and you are signed in (see Getting Started with the Toolio Overlay), this article covers everything it does: the Product Stats panel on a product page, the chips and sorting on a collection page, the settings, and how to jump into the full view in Toolio.

The Product Stats Panel

On a product detail page, open the overlay by clicking the Toolio tab on the edge of the page or the pinned Toolio icon. A Product Stats panel docks alongside the page with that product's recent performance from your Assortment Plan. The header shows the product name and, just under it, the Style No and Color No so you always know exactly which record you are looking at.

Style vs Color

At the top of the panel is a Style / Color toggle. Style rolls the numbers up across every color of the product. Color narrows them to the single color currently shown on the page. At color level a row of color chips lets you jump between the style's colors, and the panel follows the swatch selected on the storefront automatically.

Metric Tiles

Each tile is calculated from your Assortment Plan actuals and scoped to the current Style or Color view.

Metric

What it shows

Last week

Units sold in the most recent completed fiscal week, with the change versus the prior week.

Last 4 weeks

Units sold over the last 4 completed weeks, with the change versus the prior 4 weeks.

Weekly units · 8 wk

A sparkline of weekly units sold over the last 8 weeks.

AUR

Average unit retail.

Allowance %

Markdown plus discount as a share of gross sales retail.

Return rate

Returned units as a share of units sold, over the last 4 weeks.

Next PO due

The next expected delivery date.

On hand

Current inventory units in stock.

On order

Units inbound.

Weeks of supply

On hand divided by average weekly sales (last 4 weeks), color-coded for health.

Weeks of supply is color-coded so you can judge inventory health at a glance: red (0 to 5 weeks) is understocked, green (6 to 15 weeks) is healthy cover, and yellow (more than 15 weeks) is overstocked.

First and Last Sale

Under the header, the panel shows the product's First sale and Last sale dates, from the same source as the Product Summary page in Toolio, so you can see how long it has been selling.

Size Curve

The Size Curve table shows how the product sells by size, smallest to largest: last 4 weeks units (L4W), on hand (OH), each size's share of the last-4-weeks and on-hand totals (L4W %, OH %), and weeks of supply (WOS), plus a total row. It is collapsible, remembers whether you left it open or closed, and works at both Style and Color level.

Chips on Collection Pages

On a collection or search grid, the overlay adds a compact chip to every product card so you can scan the whole page at once.

Toolio chips on the product cards of a collection page

Each chip shows a small set of metrics as stat columns: a short code (for example LW, L4W, OH, WOS), the value, and, for sales, the trend. Hover a metric to see its full name and value. A thin colored bar on the left, the chip status, gives an at-a-glance health read (weeks of supply by default). Click any chip to open that product's full Product Stats panel.

Sorting the Grid

Use Sort products by in settings to reorder the product cards in place by any Toolio metric, then set the direction (High → Low or Low → High). Choose Featured (page order) to restore the site's original order. Products with no Toolio data sort last. Sorting only reorders your own browser view; it does not change the site for shoppers.

Configuring the Overlay

Open Settings from the gear icon. Your choices are saved and reused across pages and sessions.

The Toolio Overlay settings panel
  • Channel scopes every number to a sales channel (defaults to your Web or Ecommerce channel; choose All channels for the aggregate).

  • Location turns on store mode: pick a single store and every metric reflects just that location. Leave it on All locations for the aggregate.

  • Stat level sets whether the overlay shows the whole style or a single color by default.

  • Sort products by reorders the collection grid by a metric, with a direction control.

  • Chip metrics controls which metrics appear on chips and in what order. Check or uncheck a metric, and drag rows (or use the arrows and send-to-top button) to reorder.

  • Chip status sets what the colored bar on each chip reflects: weeks of supply, L4W trend, LW trend, or none.

  • Dock side moves the overlay to the left or right edge. You can also drag the inner edge of the panel to resize it.

From the Overlay Into Toolio

When you want the full picture, the panel's Open in Toolio link deep-links straight to that product's Product Summary in the Toolio app, with the complete color, weekly-sales, size-curve, and by-location breakdown.

FAQs

Why does "Last week" look like it is missing the current week?

"Last week" is always the most recent completed fiscal week. The current, in-progress week is excluded because its actuals are not final yet.

Store mode shows all-locations numbers on the collection chips. Is that a bug?

Collection chips currently reflect the channel view. A selected location fully scopes the product-page Product Stats (style, color, and size curve), so open a product to see location-specific numbers.

Some cards show "No Toolio data." Why?

Those products are not in your Assortment Plan, or their page identifier did not match a Toolio product. The rest of the grid is unaffected.

Do my settings sync to other computers?

Settings are saved for the browser you set them in. Set them again on another computer or browser if you use more than one.
