Enter the required product info in the Inventory fields. If the Inventory drop-down is not expanded, click Inventory to display the fields in this section.
Info |
---|
NOTE: These fields are optionally used to limit the quantity of a specific product that guests can add to their cart. |
...
Inventory method: Leave as “Don’t track inventory”. If setting up a retail product see the Retail product configuration guide.
Minimum cart qty: Enter the minimum product quantity a guest must select to add this product to their cart. If a value greater than 1 is entered and the “Allowed quantities” setting below is not configured, then guests will not be able to add the product to their cart.
Maximum cart qty: Enter the maximum product quantity a guest may add of this product to their cart.
Allowed quantities:
If left blank, then guests will only be able to add one product to their cart at a time by clicking the “add to cart button” on the PDP.
If looking to add inventory limitations, enter comma-separated numeric values. This allows guests to add multiple products to their cart at a time, this also dictates the exact value range of product quantities a guest can add to their cart. For example, “1,2,3,5” would only allow the guest to add those exact values to their cart, meaning they could not add a total of 4 or 6 of the same product to their cart. This also only restricts cart values to the core product or each unique product combination. From the example above, a guest could add 5 Adult Passes to their cart and also add 5 Child Passes to their cart and complete checkout since those are interpreted as different products. This also does not prevent a guest from going through checkout multiple times to get around cart quantity restrictions.
