How to assign a Low Stock value to your Products
Within your Products workspace you can find an advanced filter at the top of your page called "Low Stock". This filter was established to help isolate Products that you might need to re-order soon due to increasing sales or limited available quantity. This value is not assigned automatically however you can assign a new Low Stock Threshold at any time.
You can see this filter within the Products Workspace:
You can also see the Low Stock Threshold within the Inventory Tab of the SKU itself:
To have your items appear in this filter, your available quantity on the Product must be lower then your Low Stock Threshold value.
- If your quantities MATCH the Low Stock Threshold then they will not appear within this filter. That means you should set the value to be higher then your expected restock quantity.
