    Hi

    I have a issue where the overall inventory count is not correct for variable product

    For example I set 500 for manage stock at product level and for each variation I have set
    manage stock at variation level but when there is purchase from the variation the number of stock for that variation decrease but the overall inventory not decreasing as it will still remain as what have being set initially which is 500

    Thanks

    Hi @yltan

    Thanks for reaching out.

    From your description of the issue I find that what is happening is normal.

    Please be aware that if you enable stock management on the variation level, then the product stock is ignored. Sales will lead to a reduction in the variation stock but not on the parent stock. This is waht is happening in your case.

    If you’d like to manage stock at the product level, I would suggest that you disable stock management at the variation level.

    For your reference, here’s the documentation on inventory management in variable products: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/variable-product/#inventory-management.

    I hope this helps!
