Waitlist Activity Trend

A day-by-day view of customer momentum

The Waitlist Activity Trend in Back in Stock → Reports shows daily activity across the selected reporting period. GoScript Back in Stock WordPress Plugin for WooCommerce lets you compare demand, customer communication, and attributed purchases in one simple chart.

Select a series in the chart legend to focus on it, or keep all three visible to see how the customer journey develops from day to day.

The three activity series

• Waitlist joins show new subscriptions recorded on each store-local day.
• Customers emailed show the distinct customers who received a restock notification on each store-local day.
• Post-email purchases show attributed purchases recorded for each store-local day.

The chart provides a useful sequence: growing joins can signal rising interest, notification activity shows when a restock reached customers, and purchases reveal the measurable outcome after that communication.

How to read common patterns

• A rise in joins can highlight an out-of-stock product or range that deserves closer attention.
• A notification peak often follows a restock when customers are contacted.
• A later purchase lift can show the value of timely notifications as customers return to buy.
• A quiet period can be just as useful, helping you separate steady demand from a short-lived spike.

Use the chart as a conversation starter with your catalogue and inventory plans, then open the relevant product or report view for more context.

Focus the trend on the opportunity

Choose Today, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days, then filter by product, category, or tag to narrow the chart. Category filters include descendant categories, giving you a useful view across a whole product family.

If you need the exact figures behind the visual, open View daily values beneath the chart. This table provides the same daily joins, customers emailed, and post-email purchases in an easy-to-review format.
