Set up dynamic pricing on products to be dynamically priced.
Determine inventory threshold amounts for POS inventory threshold and, if using Dynamic Pricing Levels, determine amounts for level threshold. (See Note)
Ensure that date attribute for the product is named “Start Date” as this is expected by the code. If the date attribute is named differently, inventory color coding will not display correctly.

Note: Calendar Templates can be used to define more specific inventory urgency thresholds for specific product(s) rather than using the store-wide thresholdsConfiguration: Calendar Templates |

Detailed Setup Guide
1. Enable and Configure Advanced Pricing Calendar
Go to Aspenware Commerce > Aspenware Styling to access the Pricing Calendar screen.
...
Enable the Enable Advanced Calendar toggle to enable the Advanced Dynamic Pricing Calendar.
By default, the Use POS Inventory toggle will use the POS inventory pools to determine inventory count and threshold to determine the daily calendar background color. If Use POS Inventory is toggled to the left, it will use pricing count inventory set in dynamic pricing to determine the daily calendar background color. When a pricing level sells out, the background color will change from under threshold background color to over threshold background color.

IMPORTANT: For customers using the Cloud UI Pricing Calendar, it is required that Use POS Inventory is set to True. |
Threshold Settings enables you to change threshold settings easily (rather than going through the All Settings window in admin as detailed below).
Pricing Count Message Threshold is the threshold for the Dynamic Pricing Levels.
Inventory Message Threshold is the threshold setting for POS Inventory pools. Note: Calendar Templates can be used to define more specific inventory urgency thresholds for specific product(s) rather than using the store-wide thresholdsConfiguration: Calendar Templates
