YES! This is EXACTLY what I need!

I sell a product that is in HIGH DEMAND. I have VERY limited quantities. I can NOT have oversells! Refunding 20 customers every day is not practical :choke:

Now to just find someone to DO this for me.....

Hi all, I am looking for a solution for the negative stock issue. If anyone has a found a way to resolve this or can give me guidance / advice where to look, it would be greatly appreciated. I ran into this issue where I had one item in stock and over twenty people tried buy the same product at the same time so I had a negative inventory.

System>>Settings>>Option>>Stock>>

Stock Checkout:
Allow customers to still checkout if the products they are ordering are not in stock. `NO'

That doesn't work if 2 or more people have the 1 item in the cart and they checkout at the same time. The stock will go into the negative, regardless. I have the settings already set in the example you showed above.

Hey there, I'm interested to know if this problem is solved in the latest version of opencart or if someone is willing to write a custom script for me as well. I'm going to have the same issue and it is very important to handle stock quantities properly.

Thanks!

Make the table you track the carts/stock with InnoDB instead of myISAM. Then track the cart/stock in that table and use table locks to verify things if you're verifying and then updating the table. The performance doesn't matter if the only thing using the locking table are people with carts because you're not going to have 200 people checking out and refreshing at the same time and having good concurrency is more important.
If I change the oc_cart table to MyISAM engine, This is the reason for the negative result of it?

If the result is negative because of this, that if I changed back to the original InnoDB is not able to solve it?

PS.I can be empty oc_cart the table, let it be recalculated?

The only solution I've created is a mod that integrates with the payment option in step 6. Right before the payment is processes, I do a final stock check. If the product is out of stock, it will redirect the customer back to the cart to show the error. Otherwise, it will process the payment and subtract the stock. This, however, needs to be customized "per payment" because of the way opencart uses the actual payment form on step 6.

If you'd like a quote for the work, pm me.

Hi I was looking for the solution for OC Version 2.0.3.1
any idea?
The Setting->Store->Option->Stock thing doesn't work. It is still oversold. Thanks.
