Bulk Update

Bulk updates are modifications that apply to multiple or all products in your store. This feature helps you to manage, and modify information related to products on a large scale more efficiently instead of fixing individual products.

Click on Mass Modify --> Bulk Update

An edit screen with the following fields is revealed, a change to which will affect all the selected products once you hit the Save button, visible to the bottom-right of the edit window.

From the bulk update screen a user will be able to update UPC, Master SKU, Product ID, Item Type, Status, Cost Price, Selling Price, Name, Product Name, E-Commerce Name, Classifications, Attributes, Vendor, Vendor Alias, Royalty Level, Discount, Tax Codes, Fees and Reorder Level.

Update Selling Price

This option allows store owners to update the prices for a huge number of products at the same time. The price can be changed according to the current product price or business cost.

Below are some actions which are included in the update actions:

Percentage: Add/Subtract a percentage of the amount in the existing price of the product
- Add
- Subtract
Amount: Add/Subtract the amount on the existing product price
- Add
- Subtract
Fixed Amount: Change the price by a fixed amount. It will replace the existing price of the product.
COGS: Change the price of selected items to a percentage of its COGS.

This is extremely helpful, especially with stores that have a huge number of products. It can help store admins save a great amount of time on modifying each item’s price in turn.

Enable Price Rounding

This section will help you adjust/round your prices to the nearest decimal number (0.00/ 0.25/ 0.50). Check the Enable Price Rounding box and choose the rounding type: Rounding Up or Rounding Down from the drop-down menu. Choose the rounding options available (0.00/ 0.25/ 0.50).

For example, if you enter fields like the image above, it means you want to round the product sale price to the nearest number of the current selling price, so the unit row of the selling price is 15.

For example, if the current price is 14.69 the result will be 15. If you change the 0.25 option in the example the price would be 15.25. If you change the 0.50 option, the price will be 15.50
