OpenStock by welfordmedia
Product options are a handy way of including variations in your products. Colours, sizes, patterns; options allow you to reduce the number of product listings your store has and makes it easier for your customers to see all variations. But, how can you keep track of stock for each variant? That’s where OpenStock comes in.
OpenStock allows you to assign stock values to each individual product option of a product, rather than just stock for the single product itself. This handy tool not only makes it easier for you to keep track of exact stock levels on your store, but also allows you to see which of your product variations is performing the best with your customers.
