Non-Available Inventory Settings for Locations
By default, Multi-Location Inventory makes inventory items in a location available to orders or to display in your web store. You can change the default setting on location records where inventory can be stocked, but not committed on orders or fulfillments.
You might prefer to maintain inventory records for items while they are not available for sale, such as in the following cases:
-
Returned items that require inspection or repair
-
Items not available for sales placed in your web store
On location records, identify the availability of inventory by checking the appropriate boxes:
-
Make Inventory Available
Check this box on a location record to make all on-hand inventory stored at the location available to be added to orders.
Clear this box if you prefer that on-hand inventory stored at the location is excluded from the available count.
-
Make Inventory Available in Web Store
Check this box on a location record for on-hand inventory stored at the location to be included in the total quantity available that displays in the Web Store.
Clear this box if you prefer that the on-hand inventory stored at the location is excluded from the total quantity available that displays in the Web Store.
