# Tag products when a variant sells out at a location

When a variant's available quantity reaches zero at one of your locations, add the tag sold-out-at-location to its product. Shopify's own inventory triggers carry no location; this one does.

One trigger, built-in Shopify actions only, no other app needed. Nothing in it is specific to a store, so it works as soon as it is imported.

![The workflow in Shopify Flow: Tag products when a variant sells out at a location](https://cdn-dev.eu.codecreationlabs.cloud/crm-tool/uploads/SjJ78gKLnLlocopCui3Cs62dJbGZ7F1n/21c5e134658a292e.png)
*The complete workflow as it looks in Shopify Flow.*

## What it needs

- The app's permission **Inventory Data Access + Product, Variant & Collection Data Access**. See [Permissions and data access](https://docs.workflow-trigger-extensions.app/permissions-and-data-access.md).
- Nothing else: turning the workflow on switches the trigger **Out of Stock at Location** on in the app.

Install the Workflow Trigger Extensions app and grant Inventory Data Access and Product, Variant & Collection Data Access on its Permissions page. Turning this workflow on switches the trigger on in the app.

## Get the workflow

1. Download the `.flow` file attached at the bottom of this page.
2. In your Shopify admin open **Flow**, click **Import** and choose the file.
3. Check the steps, then click **Turn on workflow**.

The file is an export from Shopify Flow itself. Do not edit it by hand; change the workflow in Flow after importing it.

## How it works

1. **Out of Stock at Location** fires when a variant's available quantity reaches zero at one location, and names the location.
2. **Add product tags** puts `sold-out-at-location` on the product.

## Make it yours

- Add a condition on `inventoryLevel.locationName` to watch a single store or warehouse.
- Pair it with the template that removes the tag when stock returns.

> [!NOTE]
> **Good to know**
> The variant may still be in stock at other locations. To act only when it is sold out everywhere, add a **Get product variant data** step and check the total quantity.
