To set up the extension correctly, it's important to have a clear understanding of the extension's logic related to identifying out-of-stock products. 

Start by navigating to the general settings of the extension, which you can find at Stores → Configuration → Amasty extensions → Out of Stock Notifications → General tab. Once there, review the value specified in the Use qty to determine if the product is 'Out of Stock' setting.

If Use qty to determine if the product is `Out of Stock` is set to NO, the extension identifies products as out of stock based on their Stock Status setting, which should be set to 'Out of Stock':



If Use qty to determine if the product is `Out of Stock` is set to YES, the extension ignores the product's Stock Status value and relies solely on its quantity configuration. In other words, the module considers a product as out of stock and moves it to the end of the product listing page only if its quantity is less than 1. 



Additionally, it's crucial to consider that the extension also examines the quantity of child products for configurable items. Hence, ensure you review the quantity of your child products accordingly.

Considering the extension's described behavior, ensure that you adjust the Use qty to determine if the product is 'Out of Stock' setting according to your requirements. If you encounter any difficulties during configuring the module, do not hesitate to reach out to our support team for assistance.
