Managing stock levels

Managing stock levels

Stock levels let you control how many of an item can be purchased. When a quantity is set, Ezlunch & Kindo automatically count down sales and show Sold Out when the limit is reached.

This article shows you how to set, update, and reset stock levels, using both the Partner Site and the Shop Site (once your school is linked).

Watch the short video below for step-by-step guidance, or follow the written steps to get started.

What customers will see

  1. As purchases are made, available stock counts down automatically.
  2. When an item's quantity is set to 0, it will automatically show as Sold Out on the school's shop page.


Important notes about stock levels

  1. If you set stock levels, families can pre-order for the term, and those pre-orders will automatically reduce your available stock.
  2. Stock levels do not reset automatically, so you’ll need to review and update them regularly if you use this feature often.
  3. If you have more than one menu, stock levels must be updated on each menu individually — changes don’t flow between menus.
