Editing Inventory Levels
The inventory level keeps track of how many units of a variant you have in stock, ready to fulfill, at a specific location. You can use Ablestar Bulk Product Editor to edit the inventory levels of variants for specific locations in bulk.
Choose if you prefer the 'In-App Edit' or 'Spreadsheet' method:
1. In-App Edits
When you run an 'In-App edit' for the Inventory Level field, you need to specify how to edit, the multiplier and the location:

2. Spreadsheet Edits
From the app dashboard, confirm Settings are configured to allow adding inventory from spreadsheets:
Settings → Integrations and features → Add inventory with spreadsheet edits
Prep your spreadsheet to indicate the quantity of inventory as of today. You could also zero the inventory to essentially remove inventory in bulk.
Upload your spreadsheet with updated inventory levels, and from the Column mapping, specify the location to 'Set' or 'Add' inventory on the inventory quantity column:
When parsing numbers for inventory levels, the comma will be treated as the thousands separator.
✅ Tips and Troubleshooting
- By default your store will have a single location but you can use multiple locations to keep track of inventory at different warehouses or from different suppliers
- The inventory levels must be a whole number (either positive or negative)
- Editing an inventory level only works if Shopify is set to track the variant's inventory level and the inventory is connected to the specific location. Learn more here.
