Basically im trying to set up a Matrix field that also controls stock. The way I’ve got the columns set out is like this…

Colour
Size
Product Code
Stock Level

So the rows essentially look like this:

Colour - Red
Size - Small
Product Code - 95491
Stock Level - 10

Colour - Red
Size - Medium
Product Code - 95492
Stock Level - 5

Colour - Red
Size - Large
Product Code - 95493
Stock Level - 3

But I’m wondering how to make a Matrix row handle stock levels. So if someone orders “Red - Large” it knocks the value from 3, to 2.

I can control the ability to not show that option if it isn’t in stock. I just need to be able to knock the stock level down.

Is this possible?

Im sure I read somewhere on the forum about this, but I can’t seem to find it.

the field need to have a short_name of “inventory” and you have to configure it as the inventory field in the Products Channel settings.

We’re moving away from the forums, though not entirely and not immediately. Lack of support lately is coincidental to that. Unfortunately we’ve had a bad month with it, but we do not forsee that we will have any continued problems with support through our portal going forward, or on forums while we’re still transitioning. We will send out a newsletter and make additional notifications through twitter and other outlets over the coming weeks.

Moving forward; things returning to normal.
