Manage stock of the published products on eCommerce website¶
Depending on the strategy and product, displaying the inventories on the website will help increase customer experience and help customers be proactive in purchasing. In Viindoo’s E-commerce application, you can easily set up this feature and apply it to each product.
Requirements
This tutorial requires the installation of the following applications/modules:
Selling products even when they are out of stock¶
You go to Website ‣ eCommerce ‣ Products, press any products and navigation to Sales tab. You will see a out of stock field. If activated, your customers can place orders off on the website even when the quantity of this product in stock is unavailable.
For example, with Single table with wooden frame product currently having zero inventory in stock, when the feature is activated, customers can place orders off the website.
On the other hand, if the feature is not activated, they will be unable to add that product to their cart.
Selling products with available inventory¶
Navigation to Website ‣ eCommerce ‣ Products, you activate Show Available Qty feature and establish the display limit. This means that whenever the quantity of a product in stock falls below the limit, the product quantity will be displayed on the website.
For example, with Single table with wooden frame product currently having a stock quantity of 5 in the warehouse, upon setting the threshold to activate the alert at 6, the quantity of the product will be displayed on the website.
On the contrary, when you set the threshold to activate the display at 4, you will not see the quantity of the product displayed on the website.
