Bulk editing allows you to make changes to many inventory items all at once. You can adjust attributes, categories, quantity (does not apply to packages and pool wrappers), tags, tax types, and pricing. You can also choose to add, replace, or clear existing data.

How can I bulk edit the pricing of items?

You can edit the pricing of items in bulk for items that are the same inventory type (i.e. you can edit all products collectively, but services or packages would require separate editing).

Follow the steps below to update your inventory pricing:

  1. Select the inventory you want to update

  2. Click the pencil icon located in the top right

  3. Click 'Pricing'

  4. Select 'Add Pricing', select a pricing option, and click 'Next'

  5. Enter the new pricing, then click 'Next'

  6. Confirm the number of items you're editing by typing in the quantity + items (e.g. 6 items)

  7. Click 'Update x items'

  8. Refresh the page or change a filter to view updated pricing

How can I change the category or subcategory for multiple items?

You can add, replace, or clear a category if they are the same inventory type. Follow the steps below to replace the category for several items.

  1. Select the inventory you want to update

  2. Click the pencil icon located in the top right

  3. Click 'Category'

  4. Select 'Replace Category'

  6. Click 'Next' and then confirm the number of items you're editing by typing in the quantity + items (e.g. 6 items)

  7. Click 'Update x items'
