Help on Back-ordering

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I would like to using the back-ordering function on the products, but I do not want to over-sell it, as the item back in stock may have limited or unknown qty, is there any way to control back-ordering qty?
It is possible to use the back-ordering function as pre-order feature?

	Hi Lecmaco, Do you mean that you want to limit the number of back-orders / pre-orders to a certain quantity - such as the number you have on order from the supplier? There isn't a feature like this right now in ProductCart although for markets such as collectibles I can see there would be a need.

	Hamish - me thinks RotoKirby would like this feature as well. Sounds like something he might use.

	Hi Greg, Indeed, it was his site I had in mind when I posted - I miss my old Avatar, which was an image of one of his products :-)
