Product settings
Stop products with no stock on hand being added to jobs, on mobile, desktop or both.
Overview
Product Settings decide whether a tracked product must be in stock before someone can add it to a job. You set this separately for the mobile app and for the Scheduler. Products that are not tracked are never blocked.

The settings
| Setting | What it does | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Ensure Products are in stock - Mobile On or off | Ensures mobile users aren't able to add products that don't have an On Hand quantity to jobs. This will not effect non-tracked products. | Off |
| Ensure Products are in stock - Desktop On or off | Ensures desktop users aren't able to add products that don't have an On Hand quantity to jobs. This will not effect non-tracked products. | Off |
