Once the feed contains the necessary stock information, you can enable the Show Product status option in the Hotspots tab of the Publication Reader menu.
Enable Product status:
Show unavailable products on the Publication page 
| EARLY ACCESS: If you're interested in using this feature and you're on the Enterprise plan, please reach out to your success manager, who will activate this for you. |
When a product is unavailable, this will be indicated on the page directly, saving the publication's reader an unnecessary click. A customizable 'out-of-stock' icon along with a supporting hover-text appear for products that are either:
- Marked out-of-stock in the Product feed
- Removed from the Product feed.
The icon and hover text will only update as long as all products found in the hotspot meet these conditions.
Example:
In the Hotspots tab of the Publication Reader menu, you can customize the alternative icon and hover text.
