WooCommerce Attribute Stock – Shared Stock & Variable Quantities (Lite Version)

Description

WooCommerce Attribute Stock gives your stock superpowers by allowing you to share inventories between multiple products/variations, or deduct different amounts of stock for each purchase of a product, variation, or attribute.

Easily track and manage shared stock, variable quantities, product addons, combo packs, measurements, components, and much more!

?? LITE VERSION LIMITATIONS ??

This is a FREE LITE VERSION for testing and limited use. Most importantly, it does not affect frontend product stock or prevent over-purchasing. It can however be used to track internal attribute stock without affecting product availability. For all features listed below, please purchase the FULL VERSION.

What problem does Attribute Stock solve?

If you’ve used WooCommerce for a little while, you know its stock capabilities are quite limited. Each product or product variation can have a stock quantity and that’s about it. Essentially your products are your stock items.

This works fine when you’re selling simple products, but as soon as you need to do things like share stock between multiple products, or deduct variable amounts of stock quantities per sale, you’re out of luck.

How does Attribute Stock solve this?

Attribute Stock extends WooCommerce’s stock functionality by adding a few essential features like stock items based on attributes instead of product listings, allowing them to be used easily across multiple products. And versatile stock multipliers to control the amount of stock deducted for each purchase of a product, variation, attribute term, or stock item.

Whether you make use of powerful attribute stock items, or stick to using product stock with variable multipliers, your stock quantities will be accurately tracked, product availability will be appropriately displayed, and over-purchasing will be prevented.

? Plugin Features

?? Usage Examples

Example #1 – Variable Stock (Demo)

Let’s say you sell tea in packs of different weights. You can simply set your total tea stock at the product level and specify a stock multiplier on each product variation. The respective amount will be deducted from your total stock for each purchase. If you need to share variable stock across more than one product listing, you can use attribute stock items instead.

Example #2 – Multiple Attributes (Demo)

Often your stock will have more than one attribute, such as t-shirts with different sizes and colors. In this case it’s trivial to create attribute stock items with rules to match any combination of attributes across any number of products.

Example #3 – Product Bundles (Demo)

Sometimes you’ll want to sell several individual products as well as a bundle of these products for a discount. Since attributes can be added to products as variation or non-variation attributes, you can easily create stock items that are shared between all types of products.

Example #4 – Component Stock (Demo)

In some cases you might need to track stock items made from other stock items. For example, let’s say you design and sell hand-painted candles. By setting your plain candle stock as a component of your painted candle stock, you can track and sell each separately while allowing your painted candles to use the additional stock quantity of your plain candles.

Component stock is a powerful feature that can be used for many other advanced stock requirements such as batches and even stock from multiple suppliers. Learn more about how it works in our documentation below.

PerfectThis plugin fulfills exactly the purposes it is supposed to fulfill. It is very user-friendly and therefore also suitable for people who do not know how to program. However, I must say that the support is on a completely different level. Honestly, I have never found better support. I am amazed and happy. Thank you very much for your help.Für meine Landsleute nochmal auf deutsch:Dieses Plugin erfüllt genau die Zwecke, die es erfüllen soll. Es ist sehr benutzerfreundlich und somit auch für Personen geeignet, die sich mit dem programmieren nicht auskennen. Ich muss jedoch sagen, dass der Support auf einem ganz anderen Level ist. Einen besseren habe ich ehrlich gesagt noch nie gefunden. Ich bin erstaunt und glücklich. Vielen Dank für Ihre Hilfe.

WooCommerce Attribute Stock is a caps-lock-deserving BRILLIANT plugin with so much room for customization! We needed a solution for keepeng stock qtys of a t-shirt collection and it works great for tracking both textile qtys and design qtys. You can match and assosiate all sorts of attributes to create your products. It is seemlesly incorporated with the WooCommerce interface and it is just so easy to set up and manage. The WooCommerce Attribute Stock support is awsome too. They respond ASAP with the best solutions for the problem at hand!

Great for its purpose

If you’re in need of linking variations so they have tied quantity, look no further. This plugin is very flexible and has tons of options to make it work for nearly any use case. Unfortunately, this free (lite) version doesn’t fully show you everything (plugin settings for instance) and it doesn’t do everything (won’t actually change qty anywhere) so you may have a bit of a struggle to know if it will work for you or not (I did). But use the demos (very helpful) and reach out to the dev if you’re stuck, they were very quick to respond when I was having some questions. Ultimately in the end, you’ll most likely need the paid version but it is definitely worth it – as said earlier, if you need to link variations to a specific quantity, this will do that no problem (and with a clean non-serialized CSV export/import it’s not very difficult to add links and update qty – yay!). What it says on the tin is exactly what you get. Thanks for the great plugin @mewz !

Awesome plugin it izzz…

This is one of those VERY useful plugins, that you wish to support so they don’t get discontinued. It does exactly what it promises and I failed to find any bugs or downsides using it. It is even compatible?with “Back In Stock Notifier for WooCommerce” and many other stock-related plugins, which means it is clean written to work with original WooCommerce functionalities, and not just blindly hard-coded in any shape or form. I bought the premium one and it is worth every single penny. Shoutout to Saul from the support, who answered all my questions very promptly, before I made the decision. Thank you!

Works as intended (premium)
