Hi guys,
 
I'm quite a new player and I'd like to understand the difference in the availability info for the products in my store.
I can see the availability of products from my current suppliers on the 'Supply' tab or I can check the availability in the "Trade Hall" by clicking on the Purchase volume.
The numbers for the same supplier are different.
 
Why's that?
 
Many thanks

numbers under "All" = what supplier produces.  numbers under "Available" = what is available for order.
eg if supplier produces 100 widgets, and some other players have already ordered 60 widgets, there will only be 40 available for new orders to be filled.
 
good idea to check turkbostjan's videos.  very useful for new players.

I think under one of the tabs it's showing you availability to your store.  For example, when I go to buy more flour, 0 is available on the supply screen.  But when I look at the purchases screen, I see that flour is available in the amount of 6050 - basically the amount this warehouse is getting as opposed to the amount available on the market, which is 0, because my warehouse is buying it.

I'm not talking about "ALL" - I'm talking about "Available" - on two different pages there are two different numbers form the same supplier for the same product

Your order on the supply page was placed earlier. Since then more orders were made so there are no available units for new orders.

Jythier is right.  your supply tab availability is for your store/factory/mill etc.  in the trade hall when you select the supplier, the availability is what's there after your order (and others) are filled
