Step 2: Choose the Storage Format Before Assigning

In Settings → Bin locations, choose Product or Product variant to match how you organise stock. Confirm the format before assigning locations. You can also configure the maximum bins per item and, if required, a custom metafield namespace and key.

The interactive assignment list accepts up to 25 items at a time. For larger changes, use Bulk import via CSV. Assigning bin labels does not adjust inventory quantities.

Bin assignment is available on Standard and above. The detailed bin-change logs and the report’s Last updated information require Pro. For several bins on one item, the configured maximum applies; bins are not separate Shopify inventory locations.
