I m ready to launch my online store. I have stocked the items but it shows out of stock on the preview. Why and how do I fix it
Posted 05-24-2021
Hard to describe where the heck I was but
squareup.com/dashboard/items/library/somecrypticitemnumber
then you should be looking at your item in edit mode. Scroll down to Variations. Top right of that section there is a link 'Edit variation details'. Click that to pop up a window. Then center top of that is another link to Manage Stock. In there you see your locations with a check box and the stock count for each location. I think I saw that if either location was stock=0 then I would continue to see the message. I had to mess around with the checkbox and the stock count in there. But be patient because there is a delay in the sync. It doesn't show on the buyer side right away-- give it a minute or two. Definitely not straightforward/ user friendly/ or well documented.
Hi all, I found the source of the problem on another thread. You need to go in and finish updating the pickup and delivery options! That fixed it for me.
Thanks!
Hey @ChefKeith
Could be a couple of things. First, try clearing your cache on your web browser. I've noticed that the online store doesn't like to refresh itself when you're dealing with stock issues. A fresh look at the site will probably solve this.
If it doesn't check your item stock settings on both the online store and the item in the web dashboard. I've seen times where it doesn't sync perfectly. Turning off and on item stock usually clears anything odd.
Hope this helps!

Happy Selling!
None of these solutions have helped. We still show OUT OF STOCK.
I'm beyond frustrated and we are trying to complete a fundraiser bake sale before Christmas.
Also we can not get the About Section to show on our page. We continually get errors, it says it published then not there.
I have done the following:
Cleared Cache
Cleared Cookies
Added Inventory
Made it Invisible, then Visible again
Removed Inventory Tracking - as we don't need it - we are made to order
At this point, I am ready to delete and go somewhere else. How do I reach a human that will have some form of answers to get this resolved.

Did you try going in and finishing updating the pickup and delivery options? That fixed it for me.
We just started our Square website and synced it with our account but all of the stock in the online version says out of stock, all of it. Has someone else experienced this? Please help!
Thanks

Hey Isabelle,
Thanks for getting back to me.
When I go into Square online>items library>edit item>update stock> I can see there is stock there but when I go to edit the site and preview the site it says "out of stock". So it's saying I'm out of stock when I'm not. MMnh

Yes, I did have stock entered. I even waited 24 hours. It still showed Out of Stock. Today I removed the Stock visibility.

Heya @WYOCATERING,
Sorry you're having trouble getting your stock to show as available.
I'd recommend contacting our direct E-Comm CS team who can help you immediately. The Seller Community is intended for seller to seller conversations and you won't always get a reply right away here.

I had the same problem and used the following corrections.
- Go to Online/Settings/Item settings
- Go to Edit the Items status
- Change the Out of stock to "off"
- If you are concerned with your inventory running out, change the Low inventory indicator to "on"
It worked for me.
Good luck

Hello, Hopefully you have figured it out but, I had been trying for months to get my products to stop showing out of stock.
I had one that was working and I went back to check the settings. I had changed everything including stock. What worked in the end was when changed my location setting by un-checking the available location and it worked. I did this for all my items and none of them are showing out of stock any more,
I Checked All My Working Settings And Here Is What I have ....... First Go To Edit Item - Then Change Location Setting if You Have It Checked, The Go To Variations, Click On Edit Variation Details, Then Manage Stock, It Should Show What Location Where Item Is Available, And Then I Turned Off Tracking and That Will Turn Off the Out of Stock. Everything Is Working Wonderfully. I hope this works for whoever, is having this problem.
May Your Business Be a Success and Exceed Your Expectations.

Yes that will fix it if you click on shipping, I want to do local deliver only. If I do local delivery only it shows out of stock.
