New Software Features & Updates

New Feature: Share Your Store's Stock

Your Shop Local Store has a new feature: You can now update and manage your store's stock for Syncing brand products.
 
Previously, stock displayed on your Shop Local Store was automatically synced with the stock from the Syncing brand. This only reflected the overall stock available from the brand, not your store's individual inventory.
 
With this new update, you can now share your store's stock levels for Syncing brand products. This ensures that what’s displayed on your Shop Local Store accurately reflects the inventory you have on hand.
 
Please follow the steps below to use this feature:
Manage Stock for a Syncing Brand

1. Log in to your Shop Local account.
2. Browse to a brand's home (Collections) page on your Store.
3. At the bottom of the page, there is a "For Merchant Admins" section. In this section, please find "Stock."
4. Click the checkbox next to "Actively manage your own stock for this brand."
5. A green banner will appear at the top right of the screen confirming that stock management has been turned on for the brand.

** Stock management can also be activated by clicking "Edit" on a product's Details page. This will only appear in the "Your Stock" area if stock management has not yet been activated for the brand.
