# Advanced restock campaign

{% hint style="info" %}

## Before you begin

Please note that the **Advanced restock campaign** requires manual setup, while the [**Global restock campaign**](/xflow-app/getting-started/quick-start-guide/global-restock-campaign.md) is created by default and applies to all out-of-stock products.
{% endhint %}

The **Advanced restock campaign** provides users with more flexibility and control over back-in-stock notifications. It allows changing the scope and target for the products, and setting priorities when necessary.

## How to set up an Advanced restock campaign

{% step %}

### Enable XFlow Helper

{% hint style="success" %}
Steps:

1. Go to your Shopify dashboard.
2. Choose **Online Store > Themes.**
3. Navigate to **App embeds** and enable **XFlow Helper.**
   {% endhint %}

Once enabled, customers will be able to subscribe to back-in-stock alerts directly from your product page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create and launch a campaign

{% hint style="success" %}
Go to **XFlow Dashboard > Campaigns** to build a campaign tailored to your goals.
{% endhint %}

Each campaign represents a dedicated restock strategy. Instead of applying one global setup to all products, campaigns let you control:

* Which products or collections are included
* How subscribers are handled when products restock (workflows)

{% hint style="warning" %}

* When your store is using both the Global restock campaign and the Advanced restock campaign, you need to set the **priority** for the **Advanced restock campaign to 1 or higher**.
* The priority for the Global restock campaign will be 0.

When multiple campaigns cover the same product, the higher priority wins.

### Set up workflow <a href="#create-an-campaign" id="create-an-campaign"></a>

{% hint style="success" %}
Go to **XFlow Dashboard > Workflows** to build the workflow that works best for you.
{% endhint %}

Workflows control what happens when a product is restocked, and allow you to automate follow-up actions for subscribers.

Each campaign has its own workflow, so different products can follow different restock strategies.&#x20;

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Design an email template

{% hint style="success" %}
Go to **XFlow dashboard > Email templates** to set up and customize your email template.
{% endhint %}

Email templates control the content and branding of your notification emails, including:

* Subject line
* Messaging tone
* Call-to-action (CTA)
* Layout and branding elements

### Test the automation

{% hint style="success" %}
Steps:

1. Subscribe via the **Notify me button**.
2. **Restock the product** and confirm the **notification email is sent**.
3. XFlow tracks the entire customer journey for you, from email opens to completed purchases.

{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Tracking data and performance

{% hint style="success" %}
Go to **XFlow Dashboard > Subscriptions** to track restock subscription details.
{% endhint %}

You can track the number of subscribers waiting for restock, email delivery status, open and click activity, and whether subscribers complete a purchase.&#x20;

All data is campaign-based, making it easy to evaluate performance and optimize accordingly.
