This module checks the stock of products during checkout process. Thanks to this you can avoid orders with out of stock products. Right before order is placed module checks the stock of each item in cart. If some of them will be out of stock - module will return customer to cart and display notification about that.
One from the disadvantages of PrestaShop is fact that it sometimes allows to place an order for items that are out of stock. It allows to place such order even if shop settings and product settings do not allow this. It happens frequently in situations when your shop has many visitors that try to place an order for the same item. If each of this customer will try to place an order for this item in the same time - each of this customer will be able to place it - even if your shop settings do not allow it. It is because prestashop checks for stock of item only on first step of checkout process.
Thanks to this module you will avoid such problem
This module will check the stock - right before the order is placed (last step of order process, right after the customer press button "I place an order"). So, when customer will confirm the order - module will analyse the stock of items from customer's cart. If at least one prodcut will be no longer available or if there will be not enough stock to place an order for this item - module will redirect customer to cart step of checkout. Thanks to this you will avoid customer complaints.
Exclude some products from stock check
In some cases it is required to run some pre-sale sales, in this case product are out of stock but you want to sell them for your customers. Module is ready to work with these products. On module configuration page you can point items that will not be a subject of stock check during checkout and customer will have possibility to place an order for some out of stock items.
Log events
Each time when customer will try to place an order for out of stock item - module will log this event in prestashop logs system. You will be able to explore the logs and check what orders customers tried to purchase - without success.
