Hello -I am just in the process of setting up my shop and this is my scenario, warning it sounds like a lower school math’s question.
I have 7 items of clothing each of which are available in 15 colours and they are made to order. I would like to only make 15-20 items a week. Is there a way in which if I put a certain amount of items available that each time someone makes a purchase the amount comes down across my whole stock so that I never sell more than 15 items a week if though there are in theory 105 options to choose from on my store?
Yes, you can achieve this with Shopify by setting up product inventory management and using the Available quantity feature. Set the available quantity for each product variant (size and color combination) to reflect your desired weekly production limit. As customers make purchases, Shopify will automatically update the available quantity across all variants, ensuring you never sell more than your weekly limit.
Hello - thank you for taking the time to reply. Does this just take from the individual stock awarded for each item. I would like to put that there are one or 2 available on each piece of clothing which would be 104 items plus but I only want to sell 15 items a week across the whole store. Is there a way of each time an item is sold it takes from the 15 items and stops selling once this amount has been reached please?
