Shopify Inventory Options: Track Quantity & Continue Selling When Out of Stock.

How do "Track inventory" & "Continue selling when out of stock" settings affect your partnerships?

There are two different inventory options for Shopify products, "Track quantity" and "Continue selling when out of stock." Each has an effect on how Retailers in Carro sell the Supplier's products.

1. Track quantity (Always synced):

Track quantity checked - Carro syncs inventory levels between both brands.

Track quantity unchecked - Carro interprets this as an infinite supply of inventory for the product.

If Track quantity is unchecked, what does the product's inventory look like on the Retailer's store? "Not tracked":

2. Continue selling when out of stock (Retailers can turn OFF):

Continue selling checked - Carro interprets this as an infinite supply of inventory for the product.

Continue selling unchecked - Carro syncs inventory levels between both brands and prevents product sales once out of stock.

NOTE: Retailers have the ability to turn this setting OFF for any supplier products. Retailers can not turn it ON if the supplier has it OFF.
