Configure stock level buffer

When selling stock in more than one place, there is always a risk of overselling low-stock products. Set a Stock level buffer value to help prevent stock from being sold on the Marketplacer platform before it has had time to retrieve updated stock levels from the source. 

To configure a stock buffer

1. Sign in to the Integrations Manager through the retailer account.
2. Click Go to MConnect.
3. Go to Settings.
4. In the Stock buffer value box, specify the stock buffer value.
    
   
   Notes:

   • The value must be numeric.
   • The value is deducted from the stock count of each imported item.
   • If the value exceeds the stock of an item, then the value is imported with 0 stock.
   • This setting is available for all of our connectors.

   Example: If the stock buffer value is set to 5.
   Item A has 7 stock and Item B has 3 stock in Shopify. Once imported into Marketplacer, Item A has 2 stocks and Item B has 0 stock.

5. Click Update settings.
