vasttech Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 There is not a way by default, and I am not sure there is a contribution to do this. Would be an excellent one though. You could create a function in checkout_success.php that checked the inventory level after each order and if below a certain level it e-mails you letting you know. Or much easier way would be to set up a cron job that ran a sql file against the database at the end of each day to check stock levels and then e-mailed you a list of items that are out of stock or close to it. You could use the reorder level already stored in the database to set the threshold. osCommerce Knowledge Base osCommerce Documentation Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
