Stock change to out of stock when inventory levels go below set threshold

My client has asked if products can change to out of stock when they reach stock levels of 5. 

 

Currently, products are integrated with their point of sale software (Vend) and simply show out of stock when stock levels are 0.

 

My client is worried that once levels are below 5, there could actually be times where someone orders online but stock has then sold in store and there won't actually be stock to fulfill the order.

 

I can't see any apps that would do this, is it possible in anyway?

Hello @EmmaEshloe ,

You have to write a condition 
If product inventory is less than or equals to 5 show sold out else leave default code as it is.

 

Thanks

Thanks for your suggestion. I am not a developer and don't have experience with this - is this something I would need to do in the code?

Yes you need to edit the code.
