Do you know exactly how many units of each product are sitting in each of your branches?
Once your store sells from more than one location, a single stock number is no longer enough. Salla lets you control product quantities in branches so each branch shows what it actually has, whether you are updating one product, a whole catalogue, or every variant of a product separately. In this guide, you'll learn the four ways to set which branches carry a product and how much stock each one holds.
Salla gives you four ways to control stock by branch: choose which branches carry a product from its product data page, edit quantities in bulk from the products page, set a single product's quantity per branch, and set the quantity of each product option per branch.
๐ This feature is available only to stores on the Special plan.
