Set stock limits and daily capacity

Limit how many of a product can be ordered.

Open the product, find Stock Management, and choose the kind of limit you need.

  1. Enable Track Main Product Stock to limit the main product quantity.
  2. With Daily Inventory Mode off, enter Product Stock: the stock available across regular orders. Set 0 to make the tracked main stock unavailable.
  3. With Daily Inventory Mode on, enter Daily Stock Limit: capacity for each fulfillment date. For example, a limit of 12 lets you sell up to 12 for Friday and another 12 for Saturday. It is not a limit on orders placed today.
  4. Save. For an existing product using daily inventory, View/Adjust Daily Counts lets you inspect and adjust a particular date's used count.

The daily-mode switch also applies to tracked variation options; it can be on even when main product stock tracking is off. Check the variation's inventory settings when one flavour or size is unavailable.

Limits that work together

  • A product's Order Pool provides a shared ceiling across its assigned products. Raising the product stock does not increase the pool's remaining capacity.
  • A required variation with no available options can make a product sold out even with main stock remaining.
  • A bundle uses its component availability. Replenish the constrained component or its options/pool.
  • Quantity Rules limit what one customer can order; they do not create stock. Packs consume their Units per Pack in base inventory: two packs of 6 consume 12 units.

Presales have their own product, option, component and pool limits. Edit those inside the presale; regular product stock and Order Pools are not its inventory configuration.

After changing a limit, check the product as a customer with the intended options, quantity and fulfillment date. See why a product is sold out.
