How it sells itself

Bundle Inventory Sync solves a gap in Shopify: when a bundle sells, component inventory is not automatically reduced. This app tracks which variants make up each bundle and deducts component stock with every order, keeping inventory accurate without manual work. Merchants define bundles by mapping a bundle variant to its components and quantities. Syncs trigger automatically on orders or manually via Sync Now.

Shopify treats each variant as independent inventory. When variants share stock, you risk overselling and spend hours adjusting quantities manually. PoolSync creates inventory pools that sync to all linked variants automatically. Set consumption multipliers for different sizes (1oz = 1 unit, 4oz = 4 units). Orders deduct from the pool and update every variant. Refunds restore automatically.

Key points
  • Automatically deduct component inventory when a bundle order is placed.
  • Manually trigger an inventory sync for any bundle at any time.
  • Map any product variant as a component of a bundle with custom quantities.
  • Inventory pools with consumption multipliers for variants of different sizes
  • Pool health dashboard showing sync status, quantities, and warnings at a glance
  • Hourly reconciliation detects discrepancies and lets you fix them in one click
  • Safety buffer reserves stock to prevent overselling during checkout delays
