How to bulk edit products

Update price, stock or status across many products at once. Pick what to change, choose an action like "increase by %", select the products, and Crate applies it to every one in a single pass.

🖥 Web

Editing products one at a time is fine for a handful — but when you're running a sale, adjusting for a new cost price, or restocking after a delivery, doing it product by product is slow. Bulk edit lets you make the same change across dozens of products in a single action.

What you can change in bulk

  • Price — set, raise or lower the selling price across the selection.
  • Discounted price — apply or clear a sale price in one go.
  • Stock — set or adjust counts after a delivery or stock-take.
  • Status — flip products between active, draft and archived.

For price and stock you're not limited to setting a flat value. Choose Increase by, Decrease by, Increase by % or Decrease by % to shift everything proportionally — handy for a "10% off everything" weekend or an across-the-board cost adjustment.

Keep prices clean with rounding

When you increase prices by a percentage you can end up with awkward numbers like ₦8,415. The Round to option snaps each result to the nearest 50, 100 or 500 so your catalogue stays neat without a second pass.

Tip: Changes are written immediately — there's no separate save step after you Apply. If you only want to change a couple of products, you can still edit them individually from the product page.
