products module - stock levels / in or out of stock?

[jezatron]

to all vets of the calguy ecomm suite...

with the products module... how does the site know how many of each are in stock and when to stop offerring an item for sale?

do i need to combine with a stock level module of some kind? or is there a workaround?

Thanks any help appreciated

am i correct to assume that no reply means you can't do it?

Hey,
I dont think there is any module you can use to monitor stock levels. You just have to do it manually and switch over the products between published and unpublished depending on whether you have any in stock.

hey thanks for the reply.

yeah that does seem to be the case - wont wash with client though.

think about it - people are ordering products 24 hours a day, is the client supposed to lie awake at night waiting for a product to go out of stock and take them down? its so backwards.
