Determining stock priorities
In this section, you have the ability to determine the priority of modules that affects your stock. The modules listed higher in the list will have a higher priority.
When for example multiple stock manipulations apply for a certain product, the highest priority determines the modification that will be applied.
You can easily adjust the priorities by simply dragging and dropping the modules.
