Who can use this
Shop owner, Shop Manager, Shop Marketing Manager
Select a product in the Most wanted table on Back-in-stock alerts to open its requests. The page is titled Back in stock / the product's name. It is read-only for everyone.
The page covers a whole product. Requests for its variants are listed here too, with the variant named on each row.
Like the settings page, it needs stock tracking on. With it off you are sent to the dashboard with "This feature is not switched on for your shop. You can turn it on in Settings."
Stock line
The first line reads Out of stock or Back in stock — alerts are going out.
Counts by status and channel
One row per status that has requests, with a column for each channel: Email, WhatsApp and App notification.

Reading the page
Many requests in Waiting for stock and the line Out of stock: customers are waiting for you to restock.
Requests still in Waiting for stock while the line says Back in stock — alerts are going out: the round alerts the oldest requests first, limited by Alerts per unit. The others wait for the next restock.
A channel column full of waiting requests that never move: check What each channel needs on Back-in-stock alerts. Requests on a channel that cannot send stay waiting.
