Editing Unit Prices
Ablestar Bulk Product Editor allows you to bulk edit the Unit price for stores that are located in the EU or Switzerland. Before Summer of 2025, Unit pricing was only available to merchants selling in the European Union (EU) and in Switzerland.
If you are selling products in the EU or Switzerland, but your business is based elsewhere, you can contact Shopify Support to request this feature to be activated and then learn the procedure below:
Choose if you prefer the In-App or Spreadsheet method to get started with your bulk edit:
1. In-App Edit:
Once you have filtered your set of products, from the 'Configure modifications' view update the following fields:
- Field to edit: search and select ‘Unit price’
- Total Measure: Specify the total measurement quantity for the item being shipped. Select the unit of measurement from the picklist.
- Base Measure: Choose the base quantity to calculate against (typically a quantity of 1 in most cases). Select the unit of measurement from the picklist.
Confirm the list of products on the preview panel and click Run edits to apply and process the changes.
💡Note: the initial edit of Unit prices will not have a preview of edits available, however subsequent edits will show the old and new value going forward.
2. Spreadsheet Edits
From the dashboard, click the Edit with a spreadsheet button or the sidebar 'Spreadsheet edit' navigation menu.
Caution: If you use a product-level identifier to edit variant-level data, all the variants will end up with the same data. Learn how to prep and format the first column in your spreadsheet.
We recommend using a variant-level identifier for the first column in your spreadsheet, similar to this format:
- Choose the Drag and drop button to upload your file
- Select the file to upload and a mapping view will appear
- Map and specify the Whole Unit Price Data column as "Unit Price"
During your initial round of bulk updates, a preview of changes will not appear since there are no current values in the database. Subsequent and future bulk updates will display the previews to you before you make changes.
