Update Master Inventory

This guide explains how Update Master Inventory works in Bundle Groups, when to use it, and what happens after you run it.

✅ What is “Master inventory”?

The Master product is the bundle product your customers buy (example: Gift Box Set).

The Master inventory represents how many bundles are available to sell, based on the inventory of the component products.

🎯 Why you might need to “Update Master Inventory”

Normally, Tipo app updates bundle availability automatically when components change. But sometimes you may want to force a recalculation, for example:

  • You just created or edited a Bundle Group

  • You imported bundle groups via CSV

  • Component inventory was updated in bulk (import/another app)

  • Master availability looks out of date and you want to refresh it

🔄 What happens when you update Master inventory?

When you run Update Master Inventory, Tipo app will:

  1. Read the latest inventory of all components

  2. Recalculate how many bundles can be created (based on quantity rules)

  3. Update the Master product inventory to match the calculated result

✅ This helps keep your bundle availability accurate.

🛠️ Steps

  1. Open the app > go to Bundle Groups > select the bundle groups you want to update by checking the boxes beside their names.

  2. Click Update Master Inventory button

The system will automatically:

  • Recalculate the Master Product quantities based on the current inventory levels of their Component Products.

  • Update the Master Product stock across all linked bundles.

Example: Suppose your Master variant (a gift set) includes:

  • 2 × Product A

  • 1 × Product B

If Product A now has 6 units in stock and Product B has 5, then the Master variant will be recalculated as min(6 ÷ 2, 5 ÷ 1) = 3 units available.

This action recalculates the master variant’s inventory based on the component inventory, following the setting “Sync Master with Component inventory” in the app’s settings.
