Setting up custom flows

Setting up custom flows

Hello,
I need assistance setting up two automated flows, as they seem quite challenging to configure.
1. Inventory Notification Flow: I would like to receive notifications when the remaining days of my inventory fall below 20 days, and another notification when they fall below 10 days.
2. Out-of-Stock Adjustment Flow: I need a flow that automatically sets the weight of a product to zero when it goes out of stock.

Does anyone knows how to do it?

Not sure how you do (1) without inventory forecasting. Flow doesn't do that. You could write logic in it to do that but would be very hard. 

 

For (2), you can use "Send Admin API request" to update the weight with productVariantUpdate. There are 2 fields to set under inventoryItem / measurement / weight

An app like https://apps.shopify.com/mechanic might be more appropriate for Inventory forecasting.
