If no devices are listed in both the Supported Devices and Matched Devices fields, the Catalog Manager administrator made the edition unavailable to subscribers.

Setting Stocking Options

From the Catalog tab, you can specify stocking options. The current status of the stocking options is displayed after the title of the tab. The following two options for automatically stocking content are available from the Catalog Manager:

Auto-stocking Off - Published content must be manually stocked from the Catalog.

Auto-stocking On - Published content is automatically stocked from the Catalog and inherit all Catalog Manager category assignments.

Stocking options are particularly important when the same person administers both the Catalog Manager and the Vending Manager. Automated Stocking enables you to automatically push all published content from the Catalog Manager, using the categories specified in the Catalog Manager, directly to the subscriber site without having to administer content on the Vending Manager.
