Stock Blocking

In this document, we will explain how to block stock in the system. Blocking stock can be useful in various situations, such as when a group of stock (temporarily) may not be sent or when you want to reserve stock for a specific customer.

How do I block stock?

Stock blocking can be done at several locations in the application:

  1. During the unloading of an incoming order: When you unload an incoming order, you can directly block the received stock. This is useful if you know that this stock may not be available for shipping immediately.
  2. Via a stock correction: Perhaps the most common method. Through a stock correction, you can block stock on specific locations or suddenly block all available stock.
  3. On the product detail page, you can easily block all stock for that product with one click.

Automatic Blocking

Stock can also be automatically blocked based on its expiration date. So, stock that is about to expire will no longer be available for new orders.

This setting can be found in the stock section of the product settings.
