Steps to Setup the Inventory Option in WP Travel
Step 1: Enable Trip inventory
This option is especially for tracking the number of seats being booked for a trip i.e if you book the trip then enabling this option will display the remaining seat.
Step 2: Customize Count Paid Booking for inventory with your choice
Enabling this option will only allow counting inventory for paid bookings whereas disabling this option will count inventory for booking only along with booking with the payment.
Note: For now, the inventory option works for max pax, not for inventory size. So, please enable the inventory option and set the number you want to provide as available seats for the booking of the trip as max pax. When all the seats provided as the available seat (through max pax) will be booked then the customer will not be able to book the trip.
Step 3: Customize OUT of STOCK Options with your choice
This option also allows you to display the Soldout message or inquiry option if the seat is fully booked.
Step 4: Customize Sold out message with your choice
You can customize messages for unavailable trips.
Note: This option works for a fixed departure as well as in the case of trip duration.
Also, since you can add multiple pricing for the same trip, you can have the seat count separately for a separate pricing option.
For more details regarding inventory management, please refer to the official documentation.
Conclusion
By following the steps above, you can easily set up the Inventory Option in WP Travel to manage the number of available bookings for your trips. Enabling inventory, customizing booking counts, and setting up out-of-stock and sold-out messages ensures better control over your trip availability and improves the overall booking experience for your users.
Make sure to review each setting according to your business needs, and your inventory will be up and running in no time.
