How to turn on stock management

Once you are happy that StoreFeeder contains your "master" inventory and that stock levels and pricing are accurate you can choose to turn on Stock Management. 

It is important to realise that the StoreFeeder system acts as the 'Master' file, so before you turn on the Stock Management settings you must ensure you are happy with your master data within the StoreFeeder system.  This will ensure accurate synchronisation of those details to your channels. StoreFeeder cannot be held responsible for poor or inaccurate data.

This will update and synchronise all channel stock levels and pricing automatically.  To do this simply go to the 'Settings' page.

Choose your channel, choose 'Edit/View Integration', and then go to the base where your Stock Management user controls are visible.

Now you can activate Stock Management settings by clicking on the buttons here and then hit the 'Save' button.
