Looking to create a low inventory alert for a CATEGORY, not a single item

FirebrickBread — Tue, 25 Jun 2019 15:27:10 GMT

Hi everybody.

I own a mobile pizza business and would like to create a low inventory alert for my category "Pizza" when we are about to run out of dough balls. I have about 8 different pizzas in that category, but since I don't know which ones I'm going to make, I'm looking for inventory tracking and alerts for the whole category.

Is that possible? If so, how?

Thanks in advance!

Hey @FirebrickBread! We don't currently have an alert/notification built out for when there is low inventory at the category level. But seeing how you would use this, I can understand how that would be beneficial for you!

I'll make sure I pass this feedback along to our Product Teams!

I'm in the same situation and I could also use this feature. Any idea if it will be created?

Has there been a way to track a category “pizzas” yet? I also have pizza category and different types of pizzas as items and want to know when I am running low on doughs to stop selling.
