Hello,
Just wanted to say a quick thank you for being our valued customer. We take all customer inquiries, requests, and comments seriously and do our best to help in whatever way possible.
Stock management works separately for each product. Therefore, it is not possible to set a maximum quantity to the available stock for all products at a time. Since stocks may vary product to product and if stock is enabled which is also product-specific, eventually the quantity of the stock will come to an end. Then it will not be possible to checkout.
Though you did not allow backorders, it doesn’t work in such way. Hope you find your answer.
We value your business and look forward to serving you. Please write to us anytime if you need help with another request in the future.
Thanks
