Variations and number of items

Hello

I finally worked out how to create variations …woohoo! But, I don’t seem to be able to add amounts of each variation. I can put different prices and options but looking at my shop it looks like I have 10 of each :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Please help :see_no_evil:

There is no stock control associated with variations.

@SashaGarrett do you know how I can do stock control? Without having to list each one separately?

You can’t do stock control with variations, you either need to come up with a fudge (eg if you’ve got 5 brown and 2 yellow put the quantity as 2 so you can’t sell more yellow ones than you have) or list them separately.

Or you can add a note to say how many you have and please don’t order more… this covers you if customer ignores you and does :slight_smile: … you do of course also have to remember to change your note when you sell them / remove the options once they are out of stock. I use the options very occasionally but did sell one today from one of those I do use… so I quickly removed the option from the list so nobody else can select it.

@JOYSofGLASS thank you! I have amended my listing. I wonder why the team at Folksy haven’t changed this as it’s a really useful tool
