OMG: Stock levels not real time?

[socceronly]

How often do stock levels update in Commerce?

Not sure if a script has to run or my site is acting hinky.

Ok. 

It's been 45 minutes since someone bought something, and the stock level has still not dropped.

Is that normal?

Has the payment been approved/cleared ?

It should afaik change immediately once they check out and payment is authorised if the method is either manual or held for manual approval. IIRC until their payment is approved it won't drop the stock level (or not until they reach the checkout)

Check the item/product itself in the ACP, under "stock/price adjustments" , ensure that you do not have 'unlimited' checked.

I'd suggest a ticket if you're having issues with this though.

Well no rush now. I just shut them down and slapped up a good old Pay Pal button for now.

I'll test it after this game. 

Thanks!
