This article previews an upcoming new feature that has not yet been released. The information in this article is preliminary and subject to change.
Floor-depleted inventory alerts in the Backoffice notify you when a product's sales-floor inventory needs to be replenished from backstock, preventing lost revenue and keeping the product available on online menus.
Things to know
This feature requires the View Inventory and Move Inventory user permissions.
How it works
The Floor-depleted inventory banner appears at the top of the Inventory page and shows the number of products that need to be restocked. Click the banner to expand and view details.
Products appear under this banner when:
- The quantity dips below the Low inventory threshold set at the Catalog level on product detail page.
- Or, if no low inventory threshold is set for the product, when the quantity reaches zero in your Sales Floor inventory room and there is more available stock in another room.
Inventory managers can quickly restock the product by clicking the Move button and then specifying the quantity to move from a backstock room to the sales floor room, thereby keeping the product available in the Register and online menus. Be sure to also physically move inventory accordingly.
