Thread: Adding Product Inventory Amount To product.VariantsInRightBar.xml.config

Hi:

How can I add/access the current product inventory amount to these pages:

product.VariantsInRightBar.xml.config
entity.grid.xml.config

I need to get the inventory amount for each product to test whether the item is in stock, and display a customized message when it is not in stock - the app config HideProductsWithLessThanThisInventoryLevel is set to 0 to keep all products visible on our site - but we need to designate a product in red color, message "out of stock", etc... on the entity.

Thanks!

Sure, simply insert this line and feed it with the appropriate parameter:

Code:

<xsl:value-of select="aspdnsf:ShowInventoryTable(ProductID, VariantID)" disable-output-escaping="yes" />

As far as I know, this is already built-in on the product.VariantsInRightBar.xml.config, simply set the AppConfig: ShowInventoryTable to true to turn on its display...

I know the code you are referring to, I saw it in the product.VariantsInRightBar.xml.config file. But all that does is to show whether the product is in stock or not by displaying "In Stock: Yes" or "In Stock: No" according to what I read in the code.

What I need is a way to read the inventory amount as a number and not the inventory table - I need the actual remaining inventory quantity. Can you please tell me how to add code to reference that in both pages that I mentioned?

Thanks

Nope, as you can see on that XML package, specifically these lines:

Code:

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="aspdnsf:AppConfigBool('ShowInventoryTable')='true'">
<tr>
<td align="left" colspan="2" width="100%">
<xsl:value-of select="aspdnsf:ShowInventoryTable(ProductID, VariantID)" disable-output-escaping="yes" />
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:if test="aspdnsf:AppConfigBool('DisplayOutOfStockProducts') = 'true'">
<tr>
<td align="left" colspan="2" width="100%">
<xsl:value-of select="aspdnsf:DisplayProductStockHint(ProductID, VariantID, 'Product')" disable-output-escaping="yes" />
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

The stock status message will only show if the aspdnsf:AppConfigBool('ShowInventoryTable')='true' isn't met, other than that. It should display. See attachment.
