Show ETA of Out of Stock Products. Show expected arrival date

[VanessaVW]

Hello! Trying to find a solution to show the ETA of out-of-stock products when we allow overselling. Our vendors send inventory reports that have a date of when more is expected but we haven't been able to find a solution to add this to our product pages. Any ideas on apps or ways to do this?

If you are using inventory transfers customize your theme to show the next incoming date

OS2.0 themes can use custom-liquid blocks or sections 

If not using transfers then you'll need to manually add the data to products, or variants, in a property that can be referenced in your theme. Metafield definitions are a one way

If you need to semi or fully automate adding that data there are spreadsheet apps, or automation apps like usemechanic https://apps.shopify.com/mechanic
