Inventory



ONIXEDIT Bookstore offers several options to manage the inventory of your physical products, such as printed books:



  • Track inventory from stock entries: With this option, your Shopify product inventory will be automatically maintained using the stock data found in the ONIX composite of your products. For example, the following ONIX stock entries:


        <Stock>

          <LocationName>WH1</LocationName>

          <OnHand>2000</OnHand>

        </Stock>

        <Stock>

          <LocationName>WH2</LocationName>

          <OnHand>500</OnHand>

          <OnOrder>1500</OnOrder>

        </Stock>


…would result in a total available inventory of 2,500 units (2,000 from WH1 and 500 from WH2). The "OnOrder" quantity is not included in available stock:




  • Track inventory using Shopify: This option delegates inventory management entirely to Shopify for products imported through ONIXEDIT Bookstore.
  • Customers are not allowed to place orders for the product if it's out of stock. With this setting enabled, customers will not be able to place an order for a product if it’s out of stock. This corresponds to activating Shopify’s built-in control that prevents purchases when inventory reaches zero:
