Product Created Date in Shopify/Runit

Question:

When is a product created in Shopify. Is it when an item is received in a purchase order? or another time? And is it possible to control when an item is created in Shopify?

Answer:

The product is sent to Shopify and a product is created, when we get it from your POS.  
So there are two options on controlling when a product is created.

  1. You can control when we receive the product from Runit by NOT assigning the product to the webstore in Runit until you want the product to be created. We only see products that are assigned to your Runit Webstore.

  2. We can set up a custom job in the middleware to only send a product to Shopify if it has quantity. With out quantity it will sit in the middleware until it does and then be sent over to Shopify.
