InStock to out of Stock Issue

[MangaCan_2005]

If I set a product as "In_Stock" but only have say 500 is there a feature (or add-on) I can get that will tell oscommerce how many items it can sell before i'm "Out_of_Stock"

 

I don't currently see one.

 

My worry is that I may end up selling more product then I have.

In your admin set up the configuration/stock section. Set allow checkout to false and a customer will not be able to checkout more items than you have. Make sure you set the item to "in stock" in your product listing and add the quantity available at the bottom.

K, Thanks

 

Similar Note - Will the number of stock decrease when an order is filled, and can i get the system to send me an email when the quality left is low (say 5 left) in an email?

 

And where would I check the computer stocks (to ensure accuracy with phyical storage numbers)?

 

Thanks Again,
