Inventory Status
The Inventory Status feature enables you to associate attributes to items to drive internal processes. For example, you can create an Inspection status for items that are pending quality control inspection.
You can also choose to make inventory associated with each status available or unavailable to be allocated to orders. For example, you can create an unavailable status of Damaged to associate with items that should not be sold.
