Variant daily sold quantity
Keep a variant metafield updated with the number of units sold each day. Resets daily. Use it to display real-time demand, create urgency, or trigger automated workflows in Shopify Flow. Perfect for optimizing inventory and boosting conversions!
This metafield is live updated with accumuluated quantity of ordered variants as orders come in during the day (the 'day' being with respect to the shop's defined timezone). The quantity automatically resets as the day changes and either a new order comes in or there is no order for the day (meaning the day's quantity is reset to 0).
