Description
I have an e-commerce application build on ZEN-CART (www.zen-cart.com).

Right now, a customer can put an item into their cart, but until they actually complete checkout - which could take a few minutes - the inventory does not decrement at all. Which means if five people all went into the store at the same time and all put the same item (I only have one of each item) into their five individual carts, the first person to complete their checkout process gets the item and the other four get a message during their checkout that the item is no longer available.

For my particular application, this is entirely unacceptable. I need for the "available inventory" to go from 1 to 0 immediately when a customer puts that item in their cart. I'd love it if we could also modify things to allow for the inventory to update back to 1 if they decide to remove it from their cart, but for right now I just need to make sure that available inventory is decremented instantly.

I was told on the Zen-Cart help forum that in order to accomplish my goal, I'd need to focus my attentions on four or five specific shopping-cart-related files, but I have no idea how to even find where in those files I would need to modify things.

Please advise if you'd have the time to address this probably very simple problem for me.

Thanks in advance.
