Availability Locator widgets
When your site offers Click & Collect, the user can set their preferred pickup location ('My Store') at any time during their visit to your site. Setting a preferred store allows details informs them of pickup availability to be displayedfor a product or their entire order. If the user changes their pickup store, availability will be recalculated and the page will refresh and update.
...
Allowing users to set 'My Store' is achieved through adding the 'Store Availability Locator' widget at appropriate places on your site.
- Add the 'Store Availability Locator' widget to a header zone of the Theme Layout template. This places it in the site's header area, making it visible to the user at all times during browsing and searching.
- Add the 'Store Availability Locator' widget to the main zone of the Cart template. This allows the user to change pickup locations during checkout.

There are several system settings to configure for Click & Collect. These can be found in the CMS under Settings → Settings.
Enable Click & Collect
'Enable Store Availability Click And Collect' - toggles the functionality on / off. Tick to enable.Product Availability
Anchor
Logic Logic Product availability icons can be displayed on in the product detail Product Detail page, the shopping cart, and the product list Product List page. (examples of the product list page Examples where the Product List page are displayed include search results, a product category, and the My Favourites page).
Products may show a different availability status for delivery vs pickup, as the customer's default warehouse is always used to calculate delivery availability. A B2B user who switches to another account may see different delivery availability if the new account code has a different default warehouse.
Availability calculations will be specific to each site's implementation, but in all cases a 'product buffer' may be employed. This adds a safety net to the availability logic, accounting for stocktake errors, for example. The buffer value is subtracted from the available quantity, for both Delivery and Pickup. The buffer can be set at the system level or by warehouse location override.
A Product List with availability icons
The following System Settings define stock levels for availability calculations. Set the value for these These values are set in the CMS under 'Settings ' --> '→ Settings'.
Click And Collect Product Availability Buffer - this value is subtracted from the available quantity, for both Delivery and Pickup. The system level buffer is the fallback value, which can be overridden at a warehouse level. Example: PRONTO calculates 10 available for sale, the product buffer of 2 is deducted, so there are 8 available for sale.
- Click And Collect Pickup Available Qty - if available stock in user's pickup warehouse ≥ this value (after buffer), the product = 'Available for Pickup'.
- Click And Collect Delivery Available Qty - if available stock in user's default delivery warehouse ≥ this value (after buffer), the product = 'Available for Delivery'.
- Click And Collect Pickup Call Qty (Low Stock, Call to Order) - if available stock in user's pickup warehouse is less than the 'Pickup Available Qty' value, but ≥ this value (after buffer), the product = 'Low Stock - Call to Order'.
Info Available stock values for each product are drawn from the ProntoStockWarehouse table. Available stock = 'QtyOnHand' minus 'QtyCommitted' for the specified warehouse.
Order Restrictions
Anchor

This allows the user to check product availability at nearby store locations. On the Product Detail and Cart pages, the 'Check Other Stores' button will display.
This button launches a pop-up window showing the pickup availability of the product at stores close to the user's 'My Store' location. Only nearby stores with stock available will appear in this pop-up - if there are no locations within X kilometres, a message will display to indicate that no nearby stores have stock available.

- Transfer Zone - delivery availability takes into account nearby warehouses in the same 'transfer zone' group. If stock is present and can be transferred for delivery, the product will display an 'X - X days to delivery' status, depending on core logic vs transfer stock.
