Taking pre-orders

1. 1Open the product and tick Pre-order.
2. 2Optionally set the Expected date. Customers will see "Expected around" that date.
3. 3Optionally set a Limit, the most you will accept. Leave it empty for no limit.
4. 4Save the product.

Pre-orders are clearly labelled in the order, in emails and on documents, and they do not reduce your stock, as those items were never on the shelf.

When the stock arrives, open the order in Orders and select Pre-order has arrived. The customer is emailed straight away.
