The Concept Behind XFlow
Instead of relying on one global alert, XFlow separates back-in-stock into three clear layers:
1
Campaigns define which products or collections are included
2
Workflows define what happens whenstock returns
3
Emails define how the message is delivered to customers
step 01
Create Back-in-Stock Campaigns
Instead of using one global rule for your entire store, campaigns let you separate products with different needs and manage them independently
1
Global Configuration Set Up
Instead of using one global rule for your entire store, campaigns let you separate products with different needs and manage them independently
2
Create & Manage Multiple Campaigns
Group out-of-stock products or collections into campaigns, then assign a workflow to define how each restock alert is handled.
step 02
Decide What Happens Next in Workflows
A workflow defines what happens when a buyer submit the restock alert, not just whether an email is sent
1
Start With Suitable Triggers
Choose what starts the workflow, such as when a product is restocked or when a customer signs up for a back-in-stock alert.
2
Define Rules, Limit Targets
Set conditions to control who the workflow applies to, based on customer behavior, tags, or purchase criteria.
3
Actions Go Beyond Sending an Email
Add delays, send follow-ups, notify internal teams, or tag subscribers to run restock scenarios automatically.
4
Leverage Ready-To-Use Workflow Templates
Start with pre-built workflows to launch faster and apply proven automation patterns to your back-in-stock campaigns.
step 03
Design Your Messages Using Email Builder
Not all products should sound the same ensuring back-in-stock alerts feel intentional
1
Customize Your Notification Emails
Personalize back-in-stock emails and add products, visuals, or discounts so messages stay relevant and consistent with your brand.
2
Use Templates, Then Customize Freely
Add delays, send follow-ups, notify internal teams, or tag subscribers to run restock scenarios automatically.
3
Assign Emails to Different Workflows
Assign different email templates to workflows so messaging changes based on how and when stock returns, without duplicating setups.
step 04
Track Subsciptions and Orders
Track campaign performance with clear insights and results.
1
Follow Customer Footsteps After Restock Alert Sent
Track subscriber status in real time to see how customers move from signup to notification and purchase.
2
View And Manage Attributed Orders
See which restock campaigns generate orders and revenue, and manage those conversions directly in order management.
