Product Availability Management | Hide Out of Stock Products on Website
Boost your Odoo online store with intelligent stock visibility and inventory control. The app allows you to create custom stock rules from a central Custom Website Stock Configuration panel, to display stock badges such as In Stock, Out of Stock, Only Few Items Left or any custom message according to your business needs. These stock indicators can be shown on the shop page and product detail page, helping customers to make informed purchasing decisions. The app can also disable the Add to Cart button for products that are out of stock, and prevent customers from ordering more than what is available, which can help prevent overselling and improve customer satisfaction. All stock behaviour on the website is fully controlled by the store administrator, through configurable rules.
