===== Overview =====

The ToweringMedia Admin Allow Out Of Stock Order Extension for Magento 2.4 enables store administrators to create orders for out-of-stock products directly from the Magento Admin panel. This extension provides flexibility for backorders, pre-orders, and special order scenarios. Perfect for stores that need to accept orders for out-of-stock items or manage backorders, this extension allows admins to bypass stock availability checks when creating orders manually. The extension maintains data integrity while providing the flexibility needed for special order scenarios.

===== What this extension does =====

  * Bypass stock checks for backend orders while storefront shoppers still see accurate availability.
  * Tag backordered lines with notes so fulfillment knows which items will ship later.
  * Works with simple, configurable, and bundle products across MSI sources.
  * Optional customer notification workflow when replenishment lands.
  * Fully compatible with Magento 2.4.x Open Source and Adobe Commerce.
