    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”?

    Section titled “✅ 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”

    Section titled “🎯 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    • Master availability looks out of date and you want to refresh it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?

    Section titled “🔄 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

    Section titled “🛠️ 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.
