If my supplier is out of stock isn’t there an easier way to find another supplier without cancelling the order to start another one please help with the simplest method out of all of this.
Topic summary
A user is seeking a simpler method to switch suppliers when their current supplier runs out of stock, hoping to avoid canceling and restarting orders.
Suggested Solution:
- For high-demand products with multiple available suppliers, establish backup suppliers in advance
- When stock issues arise, simply update the supplier location in the existing order rather than canceling
Status: The discussion remains open with one proposed workaround, but no definitive platform feature or official process has been confirmed for seamless supplier switching.
If you have a high selling product and there are multiple suppliers that you know selling it, I would line up suppliers ahead of time, then you can have backups, and you can just change the location to the location of the new supplier.
