Set Product Stock to Zero if Stock Not Taken (Preferences)

How It Works

3. Once stock-taking is approved, the system automatically sets its quantity to 0.

When Enabled

2. Be treated as out of stock

3. Show 0 quantity in the system

4. Ensures that only physically verified stock is reflected in the system

When Disabled
