Shopify bulk edit price through your shopify Admin
You would be able to do bulk actions through your Shopify admin in tabs such as Orders, Products, and Customers. Let's take a look at "Shopify bulk price change".
As per Shopify's help center,
- On the Products Page, filter the products through various options available.
- Select the items either one by one or select them all using the master checkbox here:
3. From here you can do bulk actions to these products. To edit the prices, click on Edit products:
4. On this page, you’ll be able to edit your products’ information such as Price, Compare at Price to name a few. You can click on Columns to manage your column information.
If you’re intending to put in one price for all of the items, you can indicate the price on one cell and continue to drag it down to apply it to the other products and click Save.
The multiple filtering options available in Shopify really gives you a lot of ways to manipulate or organize your products but the use of it for bulk editing prices is limited.
Increasing or decreasing bulk price changes based on amount or percentage is currently not available through Shopify’s bulk editor.
Editing prices via the Shopify admin is cumbersome and very manual. Here’s a better way.
Why do you need such a tool in your Shopify store?
Let’s just take a look at offering discount prices in your online store during the holiday season in an instance. Traditionally, this is the time of the year when retailers, both online and offline, generate the most revenue.
In a report from Mastercard Spending Pulse released in December 2021, 20.9% of retail sales in the U.S. during the holiday season were from e-commerce. As a business, you wouldn’t want to miss a chunk of this pie and take this opportunity to attract more customers and drive sales into your stores.
But imagine going through thousands of products in your Shopify store and choosing which one to put on sale and updating their prices one by one? This process is even susceptible to price glitches that even big brands had to endure.
Marks and Spencer had to honor incorrect pricing of TVs that have been advertised to be on sale at £199 instead of £1,099. Wal-Mart encountered a technical error in their website resulting in a 90% off on their product prices which later on forced them to cancel orders and contact all customers involved.
Konigle wants to save you from this hassle by giving you the ability to change your prices in one go.
