*BUG* Items inventory is not updating correctly for all items

Here you can see 3 items received via purchase order showing out of stock after 2 days of being received. This is not acceptable. I cannot be auditing my website to ensure items are live and available for sale.

 

@frances_a Can you escalate this issue too?

Hi there, @JTPets,

 

Thank you for reaching out and for your patience while we got to this! I will be stepping in for @frances_a here, and I am more than happy to take a look and get this escalated. Once we have an update to provide, we will follow up in this thread.

I totally get that fixing these issues can take time, but I’m really in a bind and can’t wait weeks for a resolution. The system should work as expected to avoid these delays.

 

This isn’t the first time I’ve run into similar problems, like inventory getting stuck in invoice orders. In the past, these issues haven’t been resolved well, and I end up waiting a lot or finding that the thread just goes quiet.

 

To keep things moving, I’m thinking about setting up a workaround on my own, which means a lot of extra work—duplicating items, adding new inventory, updating details, and deleting the old stuff. It’s getting pretty exhausting having to handle these bugs myself after waiting so long each time they happen.

 

I’d really appreciate any help you can offer to speed things up. Thanks a bunch!

I totally hear you, @JTPets, and understand how important this is. Our Square Online team has done a reindex on your items to help fix this. Can you please take a look and let us know if you are still seeing discrepancies?

Hi there, @JTPets,

 

Following back up here, I got word from the Square Online team that they did a manual resync of the items on your account and all appears to be lined back up. Please let me know if you continue to see this. I appreciate your patience and understanding.

I'm having the same issue. The User comment was made in 2024 and today is 3/24/2026 and the issues has not been fixed. I can't believe such and important feature has not been resolved for so long. Is Square not investing in programers anymore so there is no program updates just a quick fix? 

 

Can anyone recommend a reliable POS? Does anyone have experience using Shopify POS?
