How to sync “Continue selling when out of stock” field between Odoo and Shopify.

https://ecosystem.ventor.tech/product/odoo-shopify-connector-pro/

You can sync this field by configuring a custom mapping in VentorTech Shopify connector.

In the API, this field has the technical name inventoryPolicy and supports two values: CONTINUE and DENY. These values correspond to continue selling and do not sell when the product is out of stock.

To enable synchronization, you need to create a field on the product variant that stores these values. The recommended approach is to use a select box containing the available options.

Once the field is created, you can configure the custom mapping as shown below:

Important notice:
If you are using an old release of the Shopify connector (version before 2.0.0), it uses the REST API, where the field is named inventory_policy. This field supports two possible values: continue and deny.

This way, you should be able to create custom mapping, but we do advise to upgrade the module to the latest version. You can find more information about where to get the latest release version here: https://ventortech.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/kb/view/523863145?source=shareable-url
