Mark an item in or out of stock

Control whether an item can be ordered right now, and whether it's offered for collection and delivery.

Every item has three separate availability switches. They exist so that you can take something off sale for tonight without deleting it and having to build it again tomorrow.

The three switches (on the item)

Open an item and find the Availability section:

• In stock decides whether the dish can be ordered at all right now. This is the one you turn off when the kitchen has sold out of it.
• Collection decides whether it is offered on pickup orders.
• Delivery decides whether it is offered on delivery orders.

The three work independently of each other, which means a dish can be in stock and still be collection-only. That combination is exactly what you want for something that does not survive a journey in a box.

Quick toggle from the list

You do not have to open an item to mark it sold out, which matters when the kitchen tells you in the middle of service. On Menu → Items the Status column has a switch on every row that puts the item in or out of stock immediately. You can also tick several rows and change their availability together, which is quicker when the fryer has gone down and half a section is off.

Options, not just items

Sometimes it is not the whole dish that has run out. You can mark individual modifier options and variants out of stock too, from the Modifiers and Variants tabs or from the cards on the item itself. That way, when only the Large has sold out, customers can still order the small one instead of finding the dish missing altogether. On the till, an item’s sheet also has Mark out of stock and Back in stock, so whoever is on the floor can do it without going to the office.

An out-of-stock item stays on the menu. Customers can still see it, they simply cannot add it to an order until you switch it back in. That is intentional, because it tells a regular that their favourite dish still exists and is worth asking about next time.

One location at a time

Availability is set per location. Menus and items belong to whichever location is selected in the sidebar, so if you need to mark something out of stock at another site you have to switch to that location first. There is no single switch that takes a dish off sale everywhere at once, which is worth remembering on the evening a supplier lets all of your restaurants down.
