Inventory management

Always know what you have in stock

Ecomesta keeps stock levels in sync with your orders. Every change is recorded as a stock movement, so you can see why a number changed — not just that it did.

Stock that follows your orders

  • When a customer places an order, the ordered quantity is deducted from stock
  • If you cancel an order, the stock is returned to inventory
  • Customers cannot order more than is available unless you allow backorders for that product

Adjustments with a paper trail

Received a new delivery or found damaged items? Record a stock adjustment with a note. Each movement — adjustments, sales and cancellation returns — is stored with its quantity and time, giving you a clear history per product or variant.

Spot low stock early

Filter the inventory list to see items running low so you can restock before products sell out.

Frequently asked questions

Is stock reserved while a customer is paying online?

Stock is deducted when the order is placed, before the customer is sent to the payment page. If an order is later cancelled, the stock is restored.

Can I track stock for each size or colour?

Yes. Products with variants keep separate stock for each variant.
