Business value

Customers generally expect an e-commerce site to be inventory-aware throughout the browsing experience so that they can make decisions on what to do in case of no and low inventory. Currently, we offer an option to enable a product inventory check for "buy box," "cart," and "store picker" modules, and we only allow products to be purchased if inventory is available. We'll further apply similar checks to the product discovery steps of the e-commerce shopping journey to light up the end-to-end story.

Feature details

This feature will enhance the e-commerce product search service to incorporate inventory data, and provide users the ability to:

  • Filter out out-of-stock products from product search results.
  • Display inventory level messages on product search results pages and category product list pages.
  • Sort product search results by inventory availability.
  • Filter products by inventory level on refiners.
