Managing inventory/stock, limited editions

Adding an inventory to products allows to indicate on their page, next to the pricing, when the remaining quantity available to order is low, and makes a product unavailable for purchase when sold out.

Inventory can be added to both image/video products (offered via pricing profiles) and custom products.

Inventory for images/videos

This is useful for example when selling limited-edition prints.

To add inventory to a specific image or video, select the file under My images & videos, and under Products click on the pencil icon next to the pricing profile in question.

Note that the inventory is common to all options for that pricing profiles. For example, an inventory of 10 on a pricing profile for prints in various sizes will run out when the image is sold 10 times though this pricing profile, regardless of the sizes purchased. This lets you for example offer multiple mounting and framing options without interfering with the print’s limited edition.

If you need different inventories for different options, please create different pricing profiles.

Showing inventory on your website

You can define a threshold number for inventory via the Inventory level information option:

  • When the remaining quantity is above the threshold, it will be indicated on your website that the quantity available is higher than that threshold.
  • When the remaining quantity is lower, the exact remaining quantity will be displayed.

This option can be defined in the pricing profile’s Presentation and Settings tab. For custom products, you will find as part of that product’s settings, where you also set the initial stock quantity.

If you do not wish to display inventory information on the product pages, simply leave the threshold empty.
