There are a few settings for this field, which are:

1. Location (✔️ Update)



List of inventory locations available in store. It can used to update products to a specific location only. Stock Sync does not support multiple locations. Each feed updates to a single location.


For example: If the products of the feed is to be updated on a location Paris, click on the dropdown and select the location Paris.

2. Quantity Rules



There are a few types of Quantity Rules that you can choose from. You can see the example below:



Condition (If)ValueQuantityResult Showing
< Less Than50All quantities <Less than 5 will display as 0
< Less Than300-col("Qty2")All quantities <Less than 300 will deduct the quantity from Qty column to Qty2. Ensure your feed file includes two separate quantity columns to apply this rule. For example: If have 2 columns for quantity. One column is for Qty and another column is for Qty2. If want to update the store product's quantity as Qty (5) - Qty2 (3) = 2. It will be updated product quantity as 2.
< Less Than0*col("unitqty")All quantities <Less than 0 will multiply with the quantity from qty column to unitqty. Ensure your feed file includes two separate quantity columns to apply this rule. For example: If have 2 columns for quantity. One column is for qty and another column is for unitqty. If want to update the store product's quantity as qty (5) multiply unitqty (3) = 15. It will be updated product quantity as 15.

3. Track inventory



When a product's inventory is tracked, the available inventory quantity at a location is updated automatically when receiving a transfer that includes the product.



Track inventory option has been enabled by default in the add feed.

For example: To enable the Track Quantity in the product option in Shopify, this option needs to be enabled.


4. Low Stock Alert



Determine the low stock level here and turn on the notification in the preference tab. Preferences -> Notifications -> Low Stock Alert. You will receive notifications through email on products that have low stock levels.



For example: If you set the level as 5. When the process is completed, Stock Sync will send a email notification of products which has stock 5 or below.


5. Overwrite existing quantity



The quantity in store is overwritten with the quantity available in the feed.



For example: If the store quantity = 20 | And the feed quantity = 15 | Then the updated quantity = 15


6. Add/Deduct with existing quantity



This option will sum up the quantity from the feed with the quantity in the store.



Disable Out of Stock Strategy on Step 4, to sum up duplicate SKUs in your feed file.

For example: If the store quantity = 20 | And the feed quantity = 15 | Then the updated quantity = 35


7. Only deduct from the existing quantity



By selecting this option, you can only deduct from the current quantity. By default, this option is not selected and it will not deduct.



For example: If the store quantity = 20 | And the feed quantity = 15 | Then the updated quantity = 5


8. Set existing quantity in store to 0 before updating



This option is used to sum up the quantity of duplicate SKUs that is present in the feed and overwrite the quantity in store. To enable this option, the sum up with the existing quantity option needs to be enabled.


For example: If the store quantity = 20 | And the feed quantity = 15 | Duplicate SKU quantity = 10 | Then the updated quantity = 25


9. Quantity Delimiter



This field allows us to set the delimiter as needed, with auto as the default.



For example: If your feed file's stock value is separated by commas (20,30) you can set it as ,
