Hi all!
I often struggle to remember where/if I’ve ordered a product (my email account is a mess, my own fault!), how much I’ve paid and if it was for me or for some member of my family. Is there a self hosted service that you’ve tried and find helpful that can do this kind of job?

    Sounds like a good use for asset management. I’ve used SnipeIT for asset management, and it works amazingly well for this.

    It’s just a spreadsheet system but it uses python under the hood so you can do some pretty cool stuff with it. You can use it to build a little item tracker for yourself to your own specifications.

    For example I used it to make a system for tracking car maintenance. So there’s a sheet for managing car parts, a sheet for managing job types, a sheet for managing tools and then a main sheet I can use to add repair and maintenance jobs, quick add the parts I’m buying, tools I’m using etc and I’ll get a total cost and all.

    That sounds like a job for… a spreadsheet.

      I mean, that would be an easy solution, but being a self hoster, I’m maniac about self hostng everything! 🙈

      Can I use a voice assistant in HA to add, remove, and read out items on my shopping list? The build in one doesn’t seem to have this ability yet.

      That could be a solution, thanks!

      I’ve had a look at awesome selfhosted, but those are ERP, pretty big thing to do what I need. Do you think that those are the only solutions?

      Not really.
      I want to track orders (when, where, how much, items, for whom, etc.), not packages.

    Shop.com has a great service that combs through my email and tracks everything I’ve ordered and when it’s coming. It even has access to my Amazon account directly since their tracking isn’t in the email. You’d need a service that can do that without selling your entire purchase history to anyone who’s interested. Good luck.
