Inventory Management in Jumpseller

1. Product & Variant Tracking: Every Product and Variant has a field for Inventory on Stock, visible directly on the product page.
2. Automatic Updates: Every order on Jumpseller automatically affects the current stock of the products in it.
   • Order History: View stock changes by scrolling to the bottom of a specific order.
   • Stock History: To see a specific history of stock changes for variants, click the clock icon next to the product variant field.
3. Inventory Scenarios: Various actions affect stock, including Presales (selling before production), Abandoned carts (returning stock), Returns, and Omnichannel sales (syncing physical and online stores).

Order Status & Stock Logic

Your inventory changes based on the following order transitions:

• New to Pending: Stock is reduced.
• Pending to Paid: No stock change happens.
• Pending to Abandoned: Stock is returned to inventory.
• Pending/Paid to Canceled: Stock is returned to inventory.

The Inventory Tab

The Inventory tab (Products > Inventory) is your central dashboard for bulk stock control.

1. Individual Updates: You can manually update individual inventory items (variants) directly in the list.
2. Location Selection: If Multi-Location Inventory is enabled, use the location selector at the top to filter and update stock for a specific warehouse or retail outlet.
3. Bulk Actions: Select multiple products to:
   • Increase or Decrease units by a specific amount.
   • Limit or Unlimit stock units.
   • Edit SKUs in bulk.

Bulk Updating Inventory via CSV (Recommended)

For stores with large catalogs or frequent stock changes, using the specialized Inventory CSV is significantly faster than the main product import. Unlike the general CSV, this tool is optimized solely for inventory levels.

How to use the Inventory CSV

1. Export: Go to Products > Inventory and click the Export button.
2. Identify: The CSV includes Permalink, Product Name, and Product Option Property to identify each variant, followed by columns for each Location.
3. Edit Stock: Update the numbers under the location columns.
   • Note: This CSV only allows stock changes. You cannot create new products or change names/SKUs here.
4. Import: Save as a CSV (UTF-8 format). Click Import on the Inventory page and upload your file.

Pro Tip: If you use Excel, manage your data in an .xlsx file and use Google Sheets for the final “Save as CSV” step to ensure the encoding is correct and compatible with Jumpseller.
