There isn't really a "simple" way to do it. You have to keep track of the stock count manually. You make an integer variable "count" that is set to the initial stock when the item is first added to the building. Then you start a trigger where every X seconds (X should be the stock replenish interval), you increase the count for that item by 1. If the count variable is equal to the maximum stock count for that item, then do not increase count by 1. Then, every time the item is sold, you decrease the count by 1.
