Understanding Default Stock Push Behavior

Default (No Schedule Enabled)

  • Stock push is enabled by default for Shopify channels unless others setting configure differently.
  • Without a schedule, Luminous pushes stock every four hours.
  • Push times are approximate, not precise.
    • System load and queue timing may cause pushes to run several minutes later than expected (e.g., 1:05–1:20 instead of exactly 1:00).

Enabling a Custom Stock Push Schedule

When to Enable

  • To control the exact frequency of stock pushes.
  • To increase push frequency beyond the default.
  • To reduce variability in push timing.

        2. Spread - set how many stock push schedule you prefer and set what time it will start(e.g., 6 times per day starting 12:00 Midnight)

      2. Hourly - let you set every "what: hour you want to push stock and what time you to start (e.g., every 2 hours starting 12:00 Midnight)

  • Best balance between inventory accuracy and system performance.

Why Not Push More Frequently Than Hourly

  • If new orders arrive immediately after a push, inventory may appear temporarily outdated.
  • More frequent pushes amplify this timing gap without improving accuracy meaningfully.
