Updating product stock in bulk is a quick and easy function which allows you to update stock of number of product details at once instead of going through them one by one.
Cin7 Orderhive allows you to update inventory in 2 ways - one is to directly update the inventory in the warehouses, the other way is to update the inventory on the locations managed within a warehouse (this is useful for users managing location, batch, and cost for the inventory stored in the warehouses).
