How can we help?

Bulk actions save time when several products need the same change. Start with a narrow list and check the selected records before applying anything.

Select the products

1. Open Catalogue & Stock → Product Management.
2. Use the title, SKU, category, visibility and location filters to find the intended records. Apply the filters before selecting products.
3. Tick individual product rows, or choose Select this page to tick the products on the displayed page. This is not a selection of every result across all pages.
4. Check the N selected count against the rows you intend to change. Untick any exceptions.
5. To start the selection again, choose Clear. This clears product selections; it is not the control for clearing your search filters.

For example, if a range has 60 results spread over three pages, selecting the first page does not select the other two pages. Work through each page deliberately and check the records after each batch. Recheck the selection whenever you change pages, filters or location, or reload the list.

Choose and apply the action

1. Choose an action under With selected: Move to category, Add category, Remove category, Make Live, Make Not Live or Delete.
2. For a category action, choose the required category. Read the field label: Destination category, Category to add or Category to remove.
3. Check the selected count, action and category together.
4. Select Apply when ready to make the change. Category and visibility actions submit the change at this point. Delete opens an additional confirmation.
5. Read the result message. Reopen or filter for the affected products and check the intended result before moving to the next batch.

If something does not look right

• Apply is unavailable: select at least one product, choose an action and supply a category when required.
• The list changed: inspect the current checkboxes and count again before applying an action.
• A partial result or connection error appears: refresh and inspect the affected products before retrying. An error does not establish that no changes were saved.
• You use marketplace connections: review the affected listings too, especially after changing visibility or deleting products.
