When you first create a new product in Selling Manager Pro, you
can specify the initial quantity of that product which is available for sale.
As items are listed and sold, SMP automatically downdates
the quantity available. But when you receive additional stock, or need to
make a manual adjustment, you can access the various quantities to make the
appropriate changes.
The key elements in managing your inventory quantity are:-
- You can view
the total quantity available.
- You can view
the quantity that is available for listing.
- Make manual
adjustments to the inventory quantity.
- Automatic
increases in the quantity available for listing.
- Automatic reductions
in the quantity available for listing.
SMP automatically increases the quantity available for listing
whenever the following events occur:-
- There is
no buyer when a listing ends.
- If you end
a listing early and there is no buyer.
- If you
cancel a scheduled listing.
- If you
reduce the quantity for sale in a multiple item listing.
- If an item
has not been despatched and you make a Final Value Fee Credit request.
SMP automatically decreases the quantity available for listing
whenever the following events occur:-
- When you
create an active listing or a scheduled listing.
- When you
increase the quantity available on a multiple item (Dutch Auction) pending or active listing.
- When an unsold
item is re-listed (SMP will have automatically “returned” the item to
stock when the original listing ended without a buyer).
So, for all the standard transactions, Selling Manager Pro
automatically looks after reducing stock levels when it has been sold and
despatched. But to make a manual adjustment, here’s what you need to do:-
- Select “Inventory
View” and check the box adjacent to the product you want to update and click
on “Update Qty”.
- Use the “Action”
pull-down menu to choose whether to add or reduce the stock level and
enter the quantity you want to add or deduct. Click “Update Qty” when
you have finished.
