Overview

Easily manage product availability with Clubmate’s Stock Level Control feature, ensuring items are marked as ‘Out of stock’ when they reach their limit.


Why Use This Feature?

Prevent Overselling – Ensure stock-limited products are unavailable once they run out.

Control Sales Simply – Decide which products should have stock restrictions.

Use Case Example

A fishery sells bags of boilies with a stock of 50.

How It Works:

  1. The admin enables ‘Prevent overselling of product’ for the bags of boilies.

  2. As anglers purchase bags, the stock reduces.

  3. Once all 50 bags are sold, the product is marked ‘Out of stock’ and cannot be purchased until restocked.

Ideal for:

Tackle & Retail Goods – Ensure accurate stock tracking.

  • Go to the Settings menu in the admin dashboard (top-right corner).

  • Select Products from the dropdown list.

Step 2: Edit or Create a Product

  • Under the 'Basic Options' tab, set the total stock available for the product.

Step 5: Save Changes

  • Click Save Changes in the top-right corner to apply the settings.

    Important Notes:

  • Admins must update stock levels manually when new stock arrives.
