multi store and multi stock with magento

Question

I'm using the free version of Magento and i just finished setup multi store option, so from now on this feature is working, but I didn't find the way to handle differents stock according to each multistore, for example:

• helmet#1 is only available in store-A
• helmet#2 is only available in store-B and store-C
• helmet#3 is only available in store-A and store-C but with differents prices ?

Can I do this with magento free edition ?

Thx

ClockworkGeek is correct, you either have the item in stock or you don't. If you have separate stores with separate inventories you may want to think about connecting magneto with an ERP or bookkeeping software to keep track of inventory and simplify order processing and bookkeeping. This is not a programming task to be done quickly or by a single person. There are some off the shelf extensions for a few ERPs and a few accounting apps. QuickBooks is popular one and you may already be using it: if so here are the extensions to integrate your site with QuickBooks and make order processing a breeze(not cheap at roughly $700 for either one to handle inventories and multiple stores):

Prices cannot be specified per store, only per website and then only if you turn on the option in System > Configuration > Catalog > Price.

Stock can only be controlled globally - which makes sense because you either have stock or you don't. Instead change the Status to disabled for whichever site you wish.
