How to get website orders for books that are out of stock but on the way!

November 2, 2023By Emma VeldeFeature Articles

We have now implemented a setting that lets stores show not only that the title may be out of stock, but that it is on order and available to purchase. Quantities can also be included.  Additionally, if an item is out of stock and not on order, customers can also order the item. If stores prefer NOT to allow this kind of ordering then the ‘Notify Me’ setting can be applied.
