Why didn't my product stock update when I received my purchase order?

Keeping up with inventory 👕👕👕 �is task that is sure to keep a business owner busy. It can be frustrating when your product stock numbers get out of whack. 😖 But there may be a logical explanation for it.�

Initial Value

By default, all products have a starting stock status of NULL. If you don�t change the stock status, then any action that should affect stock status will not work properly (customer purchases, returns, received purchase orders, etc.).�

To keep a product's stock history accurate and functional, the product must have a non-NULL starting stock.

Stock Status must have a positive, zero or negative value, or the new stock won�t be applied to the product.

If the stock for a product is NULL, there will be a + [blank] next to Stock Status.

Adding Stock

To add stock, simply type the number of on-hand units in the field and save. Non-NULL stock statuses will have a positive, zero or negative value next to the Stock Status field.

Summary

Got stock, but it doesn�t show? It might be because you�ve got your default �Null� stock status still on. Change this to a positive number, a zero or a negative number, and keeping your inventory current should be no problem!�
