Hello everyone,
I'm new to DC and I need help.
I started to use commerce kickstart and installed the commerce stock module. It is working well, but I have to let the costumers purchase when stock is zero.
I have to sign that if a product is 'in stock' or 'out of stock' but I also need the 'add to cart' badge in both of the events to let them order.
Please let me know if there is any oportunity to solve this problem.
Thanks,
Marci

Are you by any chance looking for wish-list functionality?
Check out this module in case it meets your needs.
Wishlist is not exactly what i need.
It is good stuff but I need something else.
I would like to sign that I have the product in stock or it is out of stock but I should allow the costumer to order it because I can purchase it from the dealer but it can last for a few days so I have to inform costumers about the availability of the products.
For example: http://www.fixedgearfrenzy.com/track-bike-parts/chainsets_cranksets
You can see they show the availability of the products, 'in stock' or 'preorder'. I need something similar.
Hello! You may add an
Hello!
You may add an "Availability State" - field based on taxonomy to your product types.
Add a new Taxonomy Vocabulary "Availabilty" and add terms "In Stock", "out but ordered" and any other states you need.
The write some rules with http://drupal.org/project/rules.
-> if products is not in stock
-> if product is reordered
-> is in stock
-> ...
Then just display the "Availability State" - field in product and hide stock - field.
I dont't know if that is the best way, but it might work :)
greets
It might work
Thanks for the hint!
I will try it but I think if i override the stock rule it wont count the stock level. so maybe it can be a problem.
It would be the best if we had a module for this... but I have not found anywhere...
Well, you could count a
Well, you could count a negative stock - level.
Oh, if you goz that, you could build your own module with features module. ;)
I would love to be able to count negative stock
Has anyone built this module yet?
Hello, I have also installed
Hello,
I have also installed kickstart commerce and have a similar request. In my case, it is not important for me to keep track of the actual stock qty on my drupal site. I would like to display the text "In Stock" if the stock level is above "0" or "Ask For Availability" in all other cases. I do want to allow a user to purchase anything (in stock or not).
Is the recipe I need "commerce stock module" + writing some rules?
