# Manually setting up negative inventory on Lightspeed R-Series

⚠️ SKU IQ only recommends enableing Negative Stock if you have it enabled for both POS and eCommerce, having it enabled for only one of your platforms can cause issues with the stock once numbers drop below zero.

4.Once you have your selection made, click on '***Save Changes***'  on the top of the page.
