# Low stock alerts and seeing what is running low

> Set a low stock level per product or for the whole shop, see what to reorder on the Stock page, and get an alert on the owner's and admins' phones.

When a product is running low, Tukri tells you in three places: the **Reorder suggestions** card on the **Stock** page, the **Low stock** card on the Dashboard, and a notification on the owner's and admins' phones or computers. What counts as "low" is set by a level: the product's own **Low stock alert**, or the shop's default level when the product has none. A product with neither never raises an alert.

## Before you begin

- Setting a product's own level needs permission to edit products: the **Owner**, **Admin** and **Staff** roles all have it.
- Changing the shop's default level and the notification switch needs permission to manage settings, which the **Owner** and **Admin** roles have to begin with.

## Set the level for one product

1. Open the product from **Products**.
2. Go to the **Stock** step at the top.
3. Type the number in **Low stock alert**. Get a low-stock warning at or below this quantity.

4. Choose **Save**.

The same field is there when you add a new product. A product with variants has no such field; the total stock of all its variants is checked against the shop's default level.

## Set a default level for all products

For products without a level of their own, set one for the whole shop.

1. Open **Settings** (on a phone, from **Menu** at the bottom), then **Shop**.
2. Go to the **Selling & stock** tab.
3. Type a number in **Default low-stock alert level**.

4. Choose **Save** at the bottom.

## See what is running low

**On a computer:**
1. Open **Stock** in the menu on the left.
2. The **Reorder suggestions** card at the top lists every product at or below its level: how much is on hand, its alert level, and on the right, under **Buy**, how much to buy.

**On a phone or tablet:**
1. Open **Stock** from **Menu** at the bottom.
2. The **Reorder suggestions** card at the top lists every product at or below its level: how much is on hand, its alert level, and on the right, under **Buy**, how much to buy.

The amount to buy brings the stock back to twice the alert level, and is never less than the level itself. When nothing is at or below its level, the card is not shown. If your shop has the buying list turned on, the card also has an **Add all to buying list** button.

Two more places show it:

- The **Low stock** and **Out of stock** buttons on the **Products** list. Low stock is shown in amber and stock that has run out in red.

- The **Low stock** card on the **Dashboard**: the five active products with the least stock. **View all** opens the product list with **Low stock** chosen.

## Get an alert on your phone

When a sale or anything else takes a product's stock below its level, a notification goes to the owner's and admins' phones or computers. For that:

1. In **Settings** › **Notifications**, keep **Low stock alerts** on. A new shop starts with it on.
   ![The notification settings on a phone: the Low stock alerts switch turned on](https://tukri.bd/help-center/en/low-stock-alerts/notifications-phone.webp)
2. On each phone or computer that should get alerts, open **Settings** › **Security**. You may be asked for your password.
3. Under **Notifications**, tap **Enable** and allow notifications when the browser asks. It then says "Notifications are on for this device."
   ![The Notifications part of the Security page on a phone: Push notifications and the Enable button](https://tukri.bd/help-center/en/low-stock-alerts/push-phone.webp)

The alert goes only to the shop owner and members on the **Admin** role who turned it on for their device. Members on **Staff** or a custom role do not get it. It is sent once, at the moment the stock drops below the level; it comes again only after the stock is brought back up to the level and drops again. Tapping it opens the Stock page, and it is also kept under the bell at the top.

## If something goes wrong

**A product is not shown as low.** It has no level of its own and the shop has no default. Also, the **Low stock** button on the product list uses only the product's own level, and only shows products with stock above zero. Products low by the shop's default, or completely out, are in the **Reorder suggestions** card.

**No alert arrives on my phone.** Check that **Low stock alerts** is on, that the phone says "Notifications are on for this device.", that you are the owner or an Admin, and that the stock really dropped below the level. A product already below its level does not alert again.

**It says "Notifications are blocked in your browser settings."** Allow notifications for Tukri in your browser's site settings, then try again.

**The Security page has no Notifications part.** This browser cannot receive push notifications. On an iPhone, add Tukri to the home screen and open it from there: [Use Tukri in Bangla and install it on your phone](https://tukri.bd/help/bangla-and-install-on-phone).
