Managing package inventory

Package inventory is dual-tracked: each package has its own unit count, and every child sponsorship has its own inventory. When a sponsor buys a package, Chamberly decrements both. Understanding how the two interact helps you avoid oversells and keep the storefront accurate.

• Package inventory is the cap on how many times this exact bundle can be sold.

• Each child sponsorship is decremented by the per-package quantity for every package sold.

• If any child sponsorship sells out — through individual sales or other packages — the package is auto-disabled until inventory frees up.

• Know the underlying inventory of each child sponsorship.

• Decide if you want a per-buyer limit so one business can't claim every package.

1. Open the package under Sidebar > Packages and select the Inventory tab.

2. Set Total package units — the number of times this exact bundle can be sold.

3. Optionally set Per-buyer limit to restrict claims per business.

4. Review the Effective availability readout, which shows the lower of the package cap and the constrained child sponsorship.

5. Click Save.

• If a package depends on a tight-inventory sponsorship, set the package cap equal to that sponsorship's stock to avoid surprises.

• Use the Activity tab to see every inventory adjustment with timestamp and actor.

• When you cancel an order containing a package, both the package and child sponsorship inventory are restored automatically.

What happens if a refund is issued?
Inventory is restored to both the package and the child sponsorships when an order moves to the refunded status.

Can I increase package inventory after launch?
Yes, as long as enough child sponsorship stock is available to back the increase.
