After July 2021, the 2.3.x release line no longer received quality updates or user guide updates. PHP 7.3 reached end of support in December 2021, and Adobe Commerce 2.3.x reached end of support in September 2022. We strongly recommend upgrading to Adobe Commerce 2.4.x to help maintain PCI compliance.

Magento Inventory Management gives you the tools to manage your product inventory. Merchants with a single store to multiple warehouses, stores, drop shippers, and more can use these features to maintain quantities for sales and handle shipments to complete orders. Track your inventory quantities, provide accurate salable stock amounts to customers for all of your websites, and ship according to recommendations based on distance or priority. And configure your preferred product configurations globally (for all stores and products), per source, and per product. These features grow with your business, allowing you to work from a single warehouse or complex shipping networks with a few additional settings.

Inventory Management features are supported by the Community Engineering efforts of the Multi Source Inventory (MSI) project. Learn more about this project and additional developer documentation in Magento Extensions.

Configuring Inventory Management

Enable inventory management in Magento. Configure inventory settings at the global to product level for stocks, sources, and products. These settings include thresholds, backorders, and more.

Managing Sources

Create and manage locations that store and ship your products. Single Source merchants use the Default Source for all product inventory while Multi Source merchants use additional custom sources.

Managing Stocks

Managing Inventory Quantities

Assign sources and add inventory quantities for tracking and selling products across locations. Update amounts per product, through bulk actions, or import and export features.

Managing Orders and Shipments

Generate full or partial shipments to fulfill orders from one or more sources, return stock to sources when issuing credit memos, and manage unshipped orders.
