Desktop POS: Selecting Out-of-Stock Settings for Desktop POS
1 min
You can decide whether you and your team members have permission to sell out-of-stock store products while making sales in POS Checkout. If you enable this option, you can display "Out of stock" labels to make it easy to see a product's inventory status.
Note:
Changes to the out-of-stock settings also affect Mobile POS.
To select POS settings:
- Go to POS Settings in your site's dashboard.
- Set permissions for selling out of stock products:
- Allow: You can sell products even if the inventory shows that they are out of stock. After a sale, your stock count becomes negative. (e.g. -1 t-shirt in stock).
- Allow with permission: Anyone with permission can sell out-of-stock products.
Note: Learn how to add staff members and assign permissions. - Don't allow: Out of stock products cannot be added to the cart.
- (Optional) If you selected Allow, you can click the Show out of stock labels at checkout so you can identify that you're selling an item marked as not in stock.
