How to set up a Pre-Order product
When the following conditions are met:
The product is sold out,
Track quantity is enabled,
And Continue selling when out of stock is checked, → The "Add to Cart" button on the storefront will automatically display as "Pre-Order", allowing customers to place an order in advance.
Steps to Enable Pre-Order:
Step 1: From your Shopify admin, go to Products → All Products.

Step 2: Click to open the product that is currently sold out.

Step 3: In the Inventory section, check the option Continue selling when out of stock.

You’re all set!
Your product is now available for pre-order. Customers can purchase it even when the stock is depleted, and the button will display "Pre-Order" instead of "Add to Cart".
