Add to cart out of stock items

Hello,

How can i turn off the "not enough stock" popup and allow people to order over the stock quantity? We get deliveries in all the time so when the person orders it we may have them on the shelf when we come round to processing the order.

Yours.

Hi,

And why not use the unlimited quantity ?
If you have deliveries in all the times, you don't need to set the stock, no ?

Thank you for the quick reply.

It is the fact that this isn't the case with all of our products. Some can take over a year to come into stock. I am using the stock quantity as a guide for the customer, so they won't be disappointed if we have to back order some of their order.

Yours

Hi,

It's not possible to do that.

The best way should be to set the products frequently delivered stock to unlimited, and set a normal stock for the others.

Thank you for your help.

Just confirming -- it isn't possible to configure HikaShop to allow products that are out of stock to be ordered by the customer?

Many thanks for the speedy response!

How does this work? If the product has a stock level over 100 then that means it needs to be ordered from the supplier -- and therefore has a lead-time before the order can be fulfilled? But if the stock lvel is less than 100 then that is the actual number of that product in stock?
