Troubleshooting: Bundle Groups
✅ Before you start (quick checklist)
Section titled “✅ Before you start (quick checklist)”Check these first
- The bundle is set up as a Bundle Group (Master + Components saved)
- You selected the correct variants (not only product titles)
- Track quantity is enabled for all component variants in Shopify
- Component quantities are correct (×1, ×2, ×3…)
- You’re checking the correct Shopify location (if you use multiple locations)
🛠 Case 1: Cannot create Bundle Groups
Section titled “🛠 Case 1: Cannot create Bundle Groups”If you cannot create a Bundle or Inventory Sync Group, make sure all required information is properly set up.
Checklists:
- The group must include at least 2 variants.
Example:
A bundle with only one product variant (e.g., just “T-shirt Blue – Small”) cannot be created. You need at least two (e.g., “T-shirt Blue – Small” and “T-shirt Blue – Large”).
The group must have at least one active location, and that location’s inventory must not be blank.
Example*:*
If your “Main Warehouse” location has no inventory number entered, the system cannot calculate the initial stock for the group.
Each variant can belong to only one group.
🛠 Case 2: Scan, Import, Export, or Report not working
Section titled “🛠 Case 2: Scan, Import, Export, or Report not working”If your scan, import, export, or report function doesn’t start or seems stuck:
| Only one task can run at a time. | Wait until the current background process is finished before starting a new one. | If you’re already importing a large CSV file, running a “Scan” at the same time will fail until the import is complete. |
|---|---|---|
| These actions run in the background. | You’ll receive an email notification once the task is complete. | After running “Export Inventory Groups,” check your email inbox, the system will send a download link once it’s ready. |
| Didn’t receive the email? | 1. Check your email address in the app’s Settings tab to make sure it’s correct. |
If you don’t see the export report email, look in the Spam folder or verify the address in Settings. |
🛠 Case 3: Unexpected Inventory Changes
Section titled “🛠 Case 3: Unexpected Inventory Changes”If inventory numbers change unexpectedly between Master and Component products, it’s usually due to a triggered sync event.
We suggest you open the History tab in the app to review which event caused the change.
Example*:* You may see that inventory for “Bundle A” decreased because an order containing “Master Product A” was created.
Note:
History records are automatically deleted after 2 months, so older changes will no longer appear.
If you suspect a sync loop or unexpected adjustment, try reviewing recent orders or edits made through third-party apps that might have modified stock quantities.
🛠 Case 4: Bundle (Master) inventory is 0 but components have stock
Section titled “🛠 Case 4: Bundle (Master) inventory is 0 but components have stock”Why it happens
Section titled “Why it happens”Why it happens (Most often)
- A component is out of stock at the tracked location
- Component quantity is set incorrectly (e.g., should be ×2)
- Inventory tracking is disabled for a component variant
How to solve
- Open the Bundle Group and confirm each component variant
- Check component inventory in Shopify and ensure Track quantity is enabled
- Confirm quantities required per bundle are correct
- Run Update Master Inventory to recalculate
✅ Example: If a bundle needs 2× Product A, then Product A stock limits the bundle.
