Suggestions for handling inventory with multiple locations

DogDaysRC — Sat, 20 Sep 2025 07:17:16 GMT

When I signed up for Square I set up the location with my home address listed for my LLC.

I have a stand at the race track where we sell our products and our online store.

Because I need to have the pick up location not be at my home address I needed to add a second location with the track address.

I also have items that are only available at the "Track" location.

Because both locations share the same inventory this causes some issue in Square when I attempt to track inventory.

If I only track at the "track" location then it shows as out of stock on the online store.
If I only track at the "home" location then it shows as out of stock when I use the terminal at the track.
If I use both it shows double what I actually have and sales at the "track" location don't update the "home" location.

Also I haven't quite figured out which location the Meta sync is using so that's also a consideration.

Any suggestions?

Update:
I think I got it figured out. I renamed the original Location I created from "Home" to "Online" for better clarification and use this location to track inventory. All of the items will have Track Inventory set to No for the "Track" location.

Still unsure as to why the second location "Track" gives the option to "Mark as sold out on Point of Sale and Online".

Hope this helps someone else in a similar situation.

Do you have to manually remove Track sales from the online inventory, then?
