We have a Magento multi-store installation. We would like to prevent product stock levels from going below "0" when 0 quantity is reached but still allow those products to be purchased. When a product is sold out, we simply drop-ship it from another company. The main goal is to not have negative counts in the inventory. Currently, when a product is dropped shipped because we're out of stock, we have to manually change the stock quantity back to "0" from "-1" in the product's inventory field. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated on how to make this happen.
Thank you,
Jim

I'm trying to develop a new products database for a client and I am having a hard time finding a solution to handle the many different prices a product can have.
Variables that can affect the price of a product:
region (where the customer lives).
customer type (whether they're a new customer or a registered customer).
order type (whether you want to purchase the item once or subscribe monthly).
store type (there were many store types, but now they're transitioning to one, but I don't know if they will add more in the future again so I want this to be flexible

I was initially thinking this would be a good route to go, but the issue that arises is on the product page I want to display the price of the product if you want to purchase it once and the price if you wanted to subscribe. The same issue would happen if I also wanted to show a list of product cards on a product category page displaying both prices.
The issue I run into
When I write a query to get the correct products with the correct price lines, I would filter all the products by the variables mentioned above, but I will always want the subscription price and the one-time price, so in the query, I would have to include WHERE order_type = 1 AND order_type = 2 but doing this would return duplicate records of the product/ products because of the different prices for a one-time purchase and a subscription purchase.
Is there a better way to set up the tables I have so that the query would not return duplicate records of the product/ products? Or is there a way to write the query to handle this for me? Or do I even need to switch up my database design altogether?
I have magento 2.2.7, the issue is when I update product quantity to zero "0", it automatically increments the quantity after some time. I tried on 3 products and each products increment was different.
I checked in logs, none were generated, checked product update time, that too also isn't changing after automatic increment. Any guesses, how can resolve it??

I want to decrement quantity 10 of particular product each time place an order by customer in magento. its don't matter what quantity added in product detail page by customer.

Maybe using observer like sales_quote_add_item, will allow you to set custom quantity once the product is added to the cart.
How to set dynamic discount amount if an coupon is applied.
For this i have created a shopping cart price rule and send this promo coupon to some customers and when they purchase products from my site and applied this coupon every customers get different discount amount based on the products in their shopping cart so how i can set this dynamic discount amount ?
I have already make some research on salesrule/rule module but getting confused so please help me...
Just for some your knowledge or someone needy finally i have found solution for my question for dynamic discount amount.
to achieve this you need to change in two methods first one is process(Mage_Sales_Model_Quote_Item_Abstract $item) under Mage_SalesRule_Model_Validator class in which you need to change the rule discount amount and set it to any dynamic calculated value like
$rule->setDiscountAmount($dynamicDiscountAmount);
and in the collect method just update the discount amount for display purpose in totals block
$address->setDiscountAmount(-$discountAmount);
$address->setBaseDiscountAmount(-$discountAmount);
I have downloaded the sample paypal IPN script using php and customised with the email for the buyout option and it has also some hidden paramaters such as amount, quantity,return_url, notify_url like this. My main idea is to do the buyout option for the product purchase in my website.The current calculation for the product purchase is as follows:
Item Price:$20
Quantity :10
Total amount $200
I need the calculation to some different way as our site have some static set of quantities and prices, so our point of calculation is as follows:
Item Price:$20
Quantity :10
Total amount:$20
So, the total amount needs to be the same for the given number of quantities.The IPN configuration doesn't allow me to change the quantity field by this way, please suggest some ideas to overcome this issue.
The item price is price per item, the quantity is of course multiplied by the item price. Your second example should have $2 as the --Item-- price. If you want to sell "10 items for $20", I think you will need to make a new item for that combo and just but the actual quantity in a custom field.
If you want to use the same item and paypal's quantity field, I think you need to look into calculating a discount and making that part of the parameters (discount_amount_cart or discount_amount_X for item X I think).
