Manage product inventory
Describes how to manage product inventory in Optimizely Configured Commerce.
Update product inventory
Product inventory is typically controlled by integration with an ERP; however, these directions will show you how to manually add or subtract inventory from a product in case the need would ever arise.
- Go to Admin Console > Catalog > Products.
- Click Edit for the desired Product.
- Click the Warehouse finger tab.
- Click Edit of the desired Product.
- Update the new inventory count in the ERP Qty Available field
- Click the Save.
Discontinued products
For historical record keeping reasons, deleting a product is not recommended. Instead, if a product is no longer available, simply mark the product as "discontinued."
- Go to Admin Console > Catalog > Products.
- Click Edit for the desired Product.
- On the Details finger tab, scroll down to the Inventory & Fulfillment section.
- Click the Discontinued toggle, so it displays Yes, indicating the product is no longer available.
Note
If a product is marked as discontinued, it will display on the site until all the inventory is gone.
Once a discontinued product is out of stock, it will automatically redirect to the replacement product if one is made available.
Replacement products
If a product has been marked as discontinued and a replacement product exists, it can be assigned on the Product page.
- Go to Admin Console > Catalog > Products.
- Click Edit for the desired Product.
- On the Details finger tab, scroll down to the Inventory & Fulfillment section.
- Select the Replacement Product from the menu.
