Synchronizing stock with variants

When you have products with variants (e.g. size and color), inventory is managed per variant. Here's how inventory synchronization works for variants in Shoporama.

Stock per variant

Each variant has its own stock status. If you have a t-shirt in S, M and L, each size has its own stock count. The product's total stock is the sum of all the variants' stock.

Update stock via CSV

You can update stock on variants via CSV import. Use the following columns:

item_number;variant_1;variant_2;stock TSHIRT-001;S;;10 TSHIRT-001;M;;15 TSHIRT-001;L;;8

Where variant_1 and variant_2 match the variant values of the product.

Update via REST API

Via the REST API you can update stock per variant with:

PUT /REST/product/{id}/variant/{variant_id} { "stock": 10 }

Shared stock

If you have multiple webshops, you can use shared stock to automatically synchronize stock across shops. When a variant is sold in one shop, stock is automatically pulled in all shops.
