User Guide for ERPNext Website Product Stock

ERPNext Website Product Stock helps businesses display live product stock availability on the ERPNext Webshop. Customers can easily see whether a product is In Stock, Low Stock, or Out of Stock before placing an order.

The module lets businesses customize stock messages, badge colors, and stock display settings to match their website. It can also show the available stock quantity and use different stock rules for individual products.
