Quantity Zero Alert Warning Messages

How to Configure the Zero Quantity Alert Percentage?



You can configure a threshold to halt inventory updates when a large percentage of products are set to zero. This helps prevent accidental updates that might wipe out your inventory.

1. Go to Manage Account

Click on Manage Account in the navigation bar.



2. Set the Warning Threshold

In the Manage Account section, configure the percentage limit under the Halt Process setting.

3. What Happens When the Threshold is Reached?

- The update will halt automatically.
- No products will be updated in that feed to avoid inventory issues.

A warning message will appear in the feed details activity log: "Warning - update halt: detected over 80% inventory set to zero"

4. How to Continue Updating Without Warning
