Availability Estimates for Commerce 2.1 and Earlier Versions

If a product runs out of stock, you can provide an estimate to customers for when it becomes available again. If you’re using an accelerator like Minium or Speedwell, three availability estimates are created automatically. Otherwise, you can create your own.

To create a new availability estimate,

1. Navigate to the Control Panel → Commerce → Settings.

2. Click the Availability Estimates tab.

3. Click Add () and enter the following information:

   • Title: 15-21 days
   • Priority: 4.0

4. Click Save.

This creates the new availability estimate. The priority value of 4.0 means that the new estimate appears below the existing availability estimates in the drop-down menu. Only estimates of priority 5.0 or higher can appear below it.

To use it, navigate to a product’s Configuration tab, enable the Display Availability option, select the desired Availability Estimate from the dropdown, and click Publish.
