Backorders and Manufacturer Inventory

Modified on Mon, 26 Jan at 2:38 PM

You have a few options on how to handle backorders and manufacturer inventory:

1. If you only want to allow orders only when Turn 14 and/or the manufacturer has inventory you need to enable manufacturer inventory, and disable backorders:

If you have manufacturer inventory enabled and backorders disabled and manufacturer inventory is in stock

Listing remains active
Orders can be processed

If you have manufacturer inventory enabled and backorders disabled and manufacturer inventory is out of stock

Listing is inactive
Orders cannot be processed

2. If you don't want to allow manufacturer inventory at all, have manufacturer inventory disabled and backorders disabled

Listing is inactive
Orders cannot be processed

3. If you want to allow backorders for all products (regardless of manufacturer inventory) have backorders enabled

Listing is active

Orders can be processed
