Hey @madfcat, assuming you’re exploring draft orders as an alternative to orderCreate (as per the other thread)?
Draft orders will decrement automatically when the order is complete. The general advice when working with draft orders is to validate inventory first.
For example, the same is possible in the admin when creating draft orders for items out of stock, but there will be a small warning:
For context, the reason orderCreate has this option as that endpoint is typically for creating records of an order already completed, so most cases the inventory shouldn’t be adjusted; whereas draft orders are for merchants to create manual orders for merchants to later purchase or complete.
