Update Products and Variations Stock from CSV

In this tutorial I would like to share with you a ready to use example how you can sync WooCommerce products and variations inventory with a CSV file automatically.

Our CSV file is going to look like this:

sync WooCommerce product stock quantities with CSV files
Of course, if you’re going to use the file just to sync stock quantities, ID and Name columns better be removed.

To make this tutorial a little bit simpler we are going to put the file in the WordPress uploads folder, but for sure you can create a WooCommerce settings page where you can upload it.

Reduce Product Stock Quantities Conditionally

When you turn the option “Manage Stock” on for your WooCommerce products (or variations), then every time an order is made, stock quantity of the products from the order is going to be automatically decreased.

But sometimes you don’t need that, or just need it for specific order statuses or payment methods. In this tutorial I will show you how you can do that.

Updating Product Stock Programmatically

Since I’ve been working a lot lately with synchronising product stock quantities between multiple WooCommerce stores or within a WordPress Multisite network, I can share with you some interesting insights how it is working.

Get Product Stock Quantity

In this tutorial I will not only show you how to get stock quantity in WooCommerce (of a product or a product variation by the way) but we will also display it on the shop page. Like this:
