Products and SKUs: link every listing to what it holds
A product is the thing you buy and sell. Each marketplace SKU links to one, with how many units a listing holds, so a 2-pack or a bundle counts the right stock.
Link your SKUs
Where in the app: Inventory → Products
Above the list, SKUs that aren't linked to a product yet: every SKU seen on orders, and every SKU Amazon or Walmart holds stock for, even if it's never sold.
- Create product makes a product named after the listing, with the SKU linked as one unit.
- Link to… links it to a product you already have.
- Bundle links one listing to several products, with how many of each it holds.
Tip: A 2-pack is the same product with 2 units per listing. Edit the product to change the units on a link.
A product
- Name, your own SKU (optional) and notes.
- Its marketplace SKUs: link, unlink, or change units.
- Optional weight of one, for splitting freight by weight.
- Reorder settings: lead time, minimum order, units in a carton.

The list shows each product's SKUs, units sold in the last 30 days, and how many are on order.
