In the Inventory panel and the Squarespace Commerce mobile apps, you can search and manage your product inventory from a single location. In this guide, you'll learn how to view, organize, search, and edit your inventory.
Tip: Use the Squarespace Commerce app to track inventory on your mobile device. The app can automatically send push notifications to your phone when items are out of stock or reach a low inventory threshold. Download: iOS, Android.
Inventory panel vs. Products Pages
On your desktop site, you can view products in two places: On their individual Products Pages and in the Inventory panel. The Inventory panel shows all products on your site, while a Products Page only displays the particular products added to that page. To add a new product to your site, you'll need to add it to a Products Page. In the Squarespace Commerce App, you can view your inventory from the Inventory tab.
Tip: To rearrange how your inventory displays on your site, go to the Products Page.
View your inventory
All published, scheduled, and hidden products in your store appear in the Inventory panel. Deleted products don't appear.
- In the Home Menu, click Commerce, then click Inventory. You can also press the ? key while any panel is open and search inventory.
- Click the arrow next to a product name to see its variants.
The current price of each item or variant displays under Price. Sale prices have a Sale badge. The in-stock quantity for each item or variant displays under Stock.
For stock and price levels, sorting is based on variants. For example, if you’re sorting by stock, and one of your variants for a product is out of inventory, the product it belongs to will be at the top of the list.
Tip: Use menu shortcuts to add links to key Commerce panels directly to the Home Menu.
Note: If you have more than 500 products in your inventory (not including variants), the app will only display the first 500, listed alphabetically.
- From the main menu, tap Inventory at the bottom of the screen. Products are grouped by type:
- Visible
- Hidden
- Scheduled
- Scroll to view all products and their current stock level.
- Products with a variant out of stock show the total stock number in red.
- Products that are fully out of stock display a red 0 and a red dot.
