Inventory management across languages

Hi,

I need to build a shopping site that supports inventory management across multilingual product descriptions.

In other words, I have a product P, whose description needs to be translatable in multiple languages. When an English-speaking user orders one instance of P, the stock for P is decremented, and this updated stock level affects all languages.

Can this be achieved using VirtueMart?

Thanks in advance

IMHO yes - the product is a product - with a stock - the desc and titles can be in multiple languages but they are only "parameters" of that product

Thank you for your reply.

Can you be a bit more specific about how to enter multilingual product descriptions? I'm looking in the backend of the demo site, and I don't see this functionality. For each product, I only see one possible description text editor. Maybe multilingual support is disabled on the demo site?...

Thanks again in advance

assume is disabled

when you install more languages (Joomla and VM) then you can select the language for all parameters - it is fully multi-lingual

After installing VirtueMart and playing a bit with it, I can confirm that it meets my needs.
Thanks again for your insights.
