How to I coordinate the quantity of an item with attributes?

Once I've added the item, the customer is able to add more than the available number of each attribute and then checkout. How do I fix this?

Hello astrokageneusalpacas, and thanks for the question.
By default OpenCart should allow them to add the item to their cart. But when they actually go to checkout they should receive a notification letting them know that the selected quantities are not available.

It doesn't look like by default there is anything built into OpenCart that will allow you to stop the adding of the item to the cart itself. You might have some luck looking at some available quantity extensions for OpenCart that might fit your needs exactly.
Please let us know if you had any other questions at all.
