Adding products to a warehouse in Sumtracker

To add inventory for a product, it must be added to the warehouse. For multi-warehouses, we don't add products to warehouses automatically.

In Sumtracker, you can decide which products you stock at each of your warehouses.

πŸ‘‰ If you have multiple warehouses, we do not add products to your warehouses by default. In this article, we explain how you can add products to your warehouses.

If you have a single warehouse, all your products are automatically added to this warehouse. There is no action needed.

Here are the ways that you can add your products to your Sumtracker. You can follow in any one of the ways listed here

  • Add Inventory to products when creating them on your Shopify store

  • Add products manually from the Inventory page on Sumtracker

  • Enable the setting to add all new products to all warehouses automatically

Add Inventory to products when creating them on your Shopify store

  • When you create a new product on Shopify, you can add its initial inventory on Shopify itself. When the product gets created in Sumtracker, we will copy the initial inventory from Shopify to Sumtracker.

  • If you follow this approach, the product will automatically get added to the warehouse where you added the inventory

  • Initially the product gets copied, you will see zero inventory but after a couple of minutes we also sync the initial inventory.

  • After this, Sumtracker will become the inventory master for this product.

Add Products through Inventory page

Go to Inventory table > Click on Add products on top right > Add the products stocked at the selected warehouse.

Once they are added to a warehouse, they will always appear for that warheouse.

Turn on global setting to add all products to all warehouses automatically on creation

Go to Settings > Account settings > Enable "Auto Create Inventory Levels".

Once you enable this setting, then all your products will be automatically added to all your warehouses automatically. You can also remove these products later from the inventory table if needed.

Remove products from a warehouse

To remove products from a particular warehouse, you need to go to the inventory table. Here you can select the products individually or in bulk, and click on "Remove from warehouse" action.

Please note that once you remove a product from a warehouse, its inventory levels will be removed. You can add back the product anytime.

You can also apply any filters that you want to select the products on and with the bulk selector the filtered products will be selected in order to be removed.
