Advice Managing Inventory

I don't think there is anywhere for such a number...I have the same problem but with hundreds of similar items (it IS really time consuming)

I've just been doing it the way you do it. I have seen sellers put a number in the title, but I never usually have enough space for that

Simple fix to your problem in my eyes. 40+ styles one letter coding each style IE: a equals pattern 1 b equals pattern 2 also utilize the numerals this will give you 36 identifiers and only use 1 letter of your description and only leave you a few patterns you need to click the auction. Of course you could use a binomial aa bb etc to identify the ones over 36 and sacrifice 2 letters in your description.

I have the same problem. Wouldn't it be nice if Auctiva could add a field for "Notes" on the Saved Listings page under each saved listing that would only be viewed by the seller. I used to be with Inkfrog and they had this field. In fact, we were able to name our saved listing instead of having it added automatically with the listing's Title Description. It was immensely helpful to me, as this is where I put my Inventory number of the item listed. Does anyone out there have any suggestions how to identify your saved listings by an inventory number other than putting it in the listing title (which is dumb in my opinion, as it only confuses the bidders and takes up valuable character space). I would certainly welcome any suggestions!

We're in the process of adding an Inventory feature.

Great! Thank You!

Auctiva Jeff,
Thanks for working on adding an Inventory feature. What about adding the Notes Field under each saved listing that only the seller can edit or view, similar to the caption field in images. This would be so incredibly helpful!

I haven't come up with a way on Auctiva, but after they are posted to Ebay, you can go to your "My Ebay" items selling and add a note to each listing which only you can see. It shows up as a yellow line under each listing and it stays with the listing when it closes, sold or not. On the items selling list on Ebay, check mark the box beside each item, then at bottom of page click "Add Note" You can type up to 250 characters about each item for your eyes only.

Hi; This have been my biggest hassel. I sell hundreds of unique items every week. When I take a photo I give it my own inventory name. So that I can find it to ship easily. For now, I have put Inventory # right in my description, but once it is listed we have to go from ebay to ebud to cut and paste that number into the Vendor# field in ebud. Once it is done, I do all my sorting, reports etc using that vendor #. So if there was some what to link a vendor # in auctiva to the vendor # field in ebud. But since I know nothing about all that, I will wait, thanks for working on this!
