Manage Product Variants and Inventory

Managing your product inventory and variants ensures your customers have accurate information about stock availability and the different versions of items you offer.

How to Manage Inventory

To keep your stock levels up to date, follow the updated navigation flow:

1. On your store homepage, click the Store button.

2. Navigate to Management and select Inventory.

3. Choose Your Management Style:

   • Automatically Manage Inventory: Enable this within the Inventory Tab of a specific product and set the quantity. The system will automatically track sales and alert you when stock is low.

   • Manual Management: Turn the automatic setting OFF to manually toggle items between In Stock and Out of Stock.

   • Direct Editing: From the All Products tab, you can click the Inventory Button to update availability for multiple items quickly.

Managing Product Variants

If you offer items in different colors, sizes, or materials, you can create specific variants:

1. Go to the All Products tab and select the product you wish to edit.

2. Click the Options tab and enable Product Options.

3. Configure Variant Details:

   • Inventory per Variant: Enable Manage Variants and Inventory to set specific stock levels for each version (e.g., 10 Small, 5 Large).

   • Price Adjustments: Add or remove a specific Charge per variant to adjust the final price from the base amount.

   • Unique Identifiers: Add a specific SKU or Weight for each variant to replace or add to the default product data.

   • Visibility: Click the eye icon to hide a specific variant from customers without deleting it.

Visualizing Variations and Guides

• Product Variation Gallery: Click the Pencil Icon next to a variant and select Gallery to upload specific images or videos for that option. This allows customers to see exactly what a "Blue" or "Large" item looks like.

• Creating a Product Guide: Go to Store > Settings > Configuration > More to add a guide, such as a size chart. Enter an Inside Name for your records and a Display Name for your customers, then use the text editor to add your content.

• Assigning Guides: Once created, return to a specific product's Options Tab, click the variation, and select your guide from the Guide Field dropdown.

Notes

• Offline Payments: If a customer uses an offline payment method (like a bank transfer), you must manually update the order status to "Paid" for the inventory to be correctly adjusted.

• Media Sources: When adding media to your variation galleries, you can upload files directly or import content from external sources like YouTube, Vimeo, or Facebook.
