 * Hello! Thanks for this awesome plugin.
 * I have a little problem. Everytime someone buys something the amount is being
   reduced by one too less.
 * e.g.
 * – 5 available
    – buying 5 – 1 is still available
 * Am I missing something? 😀
 * Kind regards,
    DamageHero

 * No problem. What does “SKU” mean?
 * I have enabled the reduction and set a value for each variation.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Also is there any way to reduce the stock only when the customer also has paid?
 * This could be done by connecting it to the order status because it changes automaticially
   when he has paid.
 * Thanks a lot!
