Enable the feature with SumUp and POS Lite to track your inventory levels so you always know when they require replenishing.
How does inventory management work?
When you make a sale via Online Store or your item catalogue, the stock level of any items sold will automatically update. When the stock of an item reaches zero, it’ll be listed as "Sold out".
The quantities will be displayed in:
Orange, when the stock goes below the Low Inventory Level
Red, when the stock of an item reaches zero
If the inventory reaches zero and you keep selling, the stock quantity will reflect a negative value, allowing you to track all sales even when the item is out of stock.
The stock level for untracked items will be set to infinite so they can never sell out.
Sold out labels
When inventory tracking is enabled, a “Sold Out” label is displayed at checkout for items with zero or fewer units available, preventing you from overselling out-of-stock items. Items quantities are updated after each sale once the app refreshes the catalogue.
The “Sold Out” label at checkout varies based on the type of item you’re selling and how it is registered.
When the quantity of a simple item is equal to or below zero, the "Sold Out" label is displayed directly on the item's tile.
Sold-out items can still be added to the checkout, but doing so may cause quantities to go negative and potentially lead to mismatches between the software’s stock count and actual inventory.
Add stock levels
On your SumUp profile, select the "Items" tab from the left-hand panel.
Select "Inventory" in the left navigation panel.
Use the "Enable tracking" toggle to switch inventory management on or off for particular items.
Enter the quantity of the item you have in stock and, optionally, amend the Stock Keeping Unit (SKU).
Click "Save" to confirm.
Tracking can also be enabled by using the item editor on your SumUp profile.

On your SumUp profile, select the "Items" tab from the left-hand panel.
Select "Inventory" in the left navigation panel.
