How do I stop selling a dish on WhatsApp when it runs out?
Updated 18 October 2026
Mark the dish unavailable the moment it sells out, so no new orders come in for it. Tell regulars on your status or in your replies, instead of saying sorry to each customer.
- Act when it sells out: do not wait for the next order to find out.
- Tell regulars: a status update saves repeated questions.
- Offer an alternative: suggest a similar dish if a customer already ordered it.
- Add it back: mark it available again when you have more.
Run out of a dish without letting down customers
Mark a dish out of stock once and customers cannot order it, wherever they found your menu.
