Transferring warehouse quantities one at a time

You can manually transfer inventory from one warehouse to another by following the steps below:

  1. Navigate to Products > All Products and select the product you want to transfer inventory for.

  2. Click on the 'Inventory' tab to view the product's current stock levels across your warehouses.

  3. Deduct the desired quantity from the warehouse you want to pull from.

  4. Add the same quantity to the warehouse you're transferring the inventory to.

  5. After making these adjustments, click 'Save' to complete the transfer.

Transferring warehouse quantities in bulk

Transferring inventory quantities in bulk requires using our Inventory CSV, but it's still quick and easy.

  1. Start by exporting your inventory data. Go to Settings > Export Data > Inventory > All Data.

  2. Sellbrite will prompt you to select the warehouse you want to export from.

  3. If needed, you can also filter the export by category (this step is optional).

 
The next step is to simply re-import the same CSV file back into Sellbrite, only now you'll want to select a different warehouse to import to. If you don't plan on transferring the entirety of your inventory and just want to split your quantities across warehouses, you'll need to make the appropriate adjustments in your CSV file before importing.

When you import your CSV, you will also be given the option to import the 'actual quantity' or a 'quantity adjustment.'

  • Actual quantity - Select this option if you're importing the actual or "final" quantities for your products.

  • Quantity adjustment - Select this option if you're adding additional quantities to what you already have in Sellbrite.

 
The last step is to reconcile your inventory, which you need to do in order to avoid having duplicate quantities. This process actually doubles your inventory because Sellbrite ingests your CSV as new inventory and will not recognize that you are moving it from one warehouse to another. You can reconcile your inventory in two easy steps:

1. Open the CSV file you just imported and zero out all of the inventory quantities.

2. Re-import the CSV file and the select the original warehouse you exported from.

That's it, you're done!
