Stock inventory issue

Topic summary

Products are unexpectedly going out of stock and becoming hidden from the online store channel despite available inventory. This affects multiple products and requires manual re-adding each time.

Suggested troubleshooting steps:

  • Check for automation apps running undocumented processes that might be modifying inventory
  • Verify if staff members are importing products or inventory via CSV files
  • Review the “Adjustment history” link on individual product variant pages in Shopify Admin

Key diagnostic tool:
The adjustment history shows the last 90 days of inventory changes and includes an “Adjusted by” column that identifies which app or staff member made each modification. Screenshots were provided showing where to locate this feature in the Shopify interface.

The issue appears systematic rather than isolated, suggesting an automated process or recurring action may be the root cause.
