Current state

Products that were Not Photographed with a future (private) publish date get deleted in WooCommerce when removed (qty → 0). They can’t be brought back, even if data/photography work exists.

New behaviour

This story extends the restore logic for removed items. For products that were never live and had status Not Photographed, the sales team should be able to bring them back by setting quantity → 1 (via WooC or Airtable).

On restore, the workflow should basically re-do the existing “bag accepted = Yes” automation with the following extras:

• Recreate/restore the WooC product and set status: Not Photographed

• Reapply the future publish date per existing scheduling logic

• Trigger email: “Your bag will be live soon” (seller)

• Post Slack in #syb_bag_was_removed_by_seller:

  • “The [Bagname (w/ link)] [SKU] has been put back into status Not Photographed and will be republished on [Publish Date] by [admin email]”

• Allow repeated remove/restore cycles without breaking scheduling, or notification flows

Limit condition: Only applies if the product’s last valid status was Not Photographed; otherwise ignore/block the qty update.
