Inventory Tracking for Options
Option Inventory Tracking allows you to manage stock quantities per option value (for example: each color or style), instead of tracking inventory only at the product level.
With this feature, you can:
Set available stock for each option value
Automatically stop sales when an option is out of stock (or continue selling if needed)
Monitor inventory changes and adjustments in one place
This is especially useful for products where different options have different stock levels, such as colors, materials, or custom variations.
Setting up inventory tracking for your option
Step 1. Create Your Option
Open Avis Product Options and create a new option (or edit an existing one).
In the Basic settings tab, enter your Option name and Option values (for example: Color – Green, Grey, Blue, Black).
If you are using image swatches, upload an image that matches or represents each option value.
The option values you create here will be used for inventory tracking in the next steps.
Step 2. Enable Inventory Tracking
In the Basic settings tab, scroll down and enable Track inventory.
Once enabled, additional inventory-related columns will appear for each option value, such as SKU, Inventory tracked, and Available quantity.
Step 3. Set Up Inventory Information
After enabling Track inventory, configure inventory details for each option value.
SKU (Optional)
You can assign a SKU to each option value for internal tracking.
If left empty, the system will display No SKU in the inventory list.
Inventory / Stock Tracking
For each option value:
Make sure Inventory tracked is checked.
Enter the Available quantity directly, or click Details for advanced inventory settings.
Inventory Details (Details Menu)
Click Details next to an option value to manage detailed stock information:
Unavailable: Quantity that cannot be sold.
Committed: Quantity reserved for existing orders.
Available: Quantity customers can currently purchase.
On hand: Total physical stock in your inventory.
Continue Selling When Out of Stock
Enable this option to allow customers to purchase even when stock reaches zero.
Disable it to automatically stop sales when the option is out of stock.
View Adjustment History
Click View adjustments history to review all past inventory changes for that option value.
