Weekly sales limits and Pre-orders

I’d like to set a weekly sales limit for my product. Not a cart limit. While still allowing for pre-orders of the product for the following week when they sell out for the current week.

For example: 10 sales per week

Customer 1 orders 6, customer 2 orders 6

Customer 1 gets all 6 fulfilled that week.

Customer 2 gets the option to fulfill 4 this week while 2 become pre-orders to be fulfilled next week

OR, they can choose all 6 as pre-orders to be fulfilled the following week.

I’ve tried setting the inventory number but because I have 5 variations of the product I can no longer control the inventory of the main product.

Removing the variations and just making 5 separate products doesn’t work either because they’ll each have their own inventory amount (Each product set at 10 in inventory could still allow for 50 orders in 1 week)

Ive tried 3rd party apps but all Ive found only provide cart limits, not total store-wide time-based sales limits.

Can anyone help?

Hello there pal @Ymatos09 to limit the weekly sales in your store, you can follow the simply steps in this article https://egnition.io/resources/inventory-mgmt/can-i-limit-product-quantities-in-my-shopify-store

I believe that should help you sort this out ASAP!

I mentioned why setting an inventory does not work. Also, that article discusses product limiting, not weekly sales limiting…any other suggestions?
