Process question

[frenchy232]

Am I right in concluding that there is no way of stopping a customer over ordering an item?

For example if I have 5 items in stock, there is nothing to stop the customer ordering 6.

Many Thanks,

Frenchy.

Have you got stock monitoring on?

Hello & yes,

This works to a point.

Taking my previous example, the customer would place their order. On retrieval of orders my stock level would update to -1 and the various warning threshold emails would be triggered.

On updating the website the item would be become unavailable.

However what I would really like to happen is that the customer could not place the order in the first place, make sense?

Cheers,

Frenchy.

Hi,

I did try searching before posting, however refined the seach and found the threads you were referring to, which are very conclusive.

I guess my only remaining question is has anyone got any experince of the third party tool mentioned (Moleend) to overcome this problem, good or bad?

many Thanks,

Frenchy.
