The Inventory Sync feature in the Listing Tool helps you manage stock quantities across multiple eBay accounts from one centralized inventory system.
When inventory changes — whether from a manual edit, CSV upload, bulk action, or a received order — 3Dsellers can automatically sync the updated quantity to every connected channel where that SKU exists.
This helps prevent overselling and keeps inventory consistent across marketplaces.
Accessing Inventory Sync
To open Inventory Sync:
In the left sidebar, go to Listings & Products
Expand Inventory Management
Click Inventory Sync
The Inventory Sync page displays all SKUs currently managed by the inventory system.
Understanding the Inventory Table
Each row in the table represents a synced SKU.
Columns Overview
Column | Description |
SKU | Product SKU and thumbnail image |
Warehouse | Assigned warehouse (Default or custom warehouse) |
On Hand | Current physical inventory quantity |
Sync Channels | Channels where the SKU is detected and inventory sync is active |
Important Notes
The Sync Channels column is populated automatically.
3Dsellers identifies matching SKUs across your connected channels.
You do not need to configure channel assignments per SKU manually.
Adding a SKU to Inventory Sync
To begin tracking inventory for a product:
Click + Sync New SKU in the top-right corner
Search by:
SKU
Product title
Select the correct product from the dropdown list
After selecting the SKU:

The SKU will immediately appear in the Inventory Sync table.
Once added, 3Dsellers can sync quantity updates across connected channels (depending on your sync settings).

To manually update a SKU:
Click the pencil icon next to the SKU
The Inventory Settings window opens
From here you can:

Updating Inventory with CSV
The CSV import tool allows you to update many SKUs at once.
To access it:
Click Update Inventory with CSV
Download the sample CSV template
Fill in your inventory updates
Upload the completed CSV file
CSV File Structure
The template uses the following columns:
Column | Description |
SKU | Product SKU |
Warehouse Name | Warehouse to update |
Quantity | New On Hand quantity |
Bin Location Name | Optional warehouse bin location |
CSV Examples
Update Quantity
Update SKU1 quantity to 5:
SKU1 / WarehouseName / 5
Update Quantity with Bin Location
SKU2 / WarehouseName / 5 / 12-L5-E3
Remove a Warehouse from a SKU
Use {DELETE} in the Quantity column:
SKU3 / WarehouseName / {DELETE}Multiple Warehouses for One SKU
SKU4 / WarehouseName1 / 10
SKU4 / WarehouseName2 / 5
This allows one SKU to maintain inventory across multiple warehouse locations.
Filtering the Inventory List
Use Filter to quickly locate specific SKUs within your inventory.
Filters are organized into categories such as:
General — product details like brand, category, SKU, title, channels, and condition
Pricing — pricing-related fields such as MSRP, retail price, and wholesale price
Inventory — inventory-specific values including available quantity, on hand quantity, reserved quantity, and warehouse assignment
Identifiers — product identifiers like UPC, EAN, ISBN, ASIN, EPID, and GTIN
Type — inventory structure and inventory type fields
To apply a filter:
Click Filter
Select a filter field
Choose a condition (example: contains, equals, greater than)
Enter a value
Click Add Filter
You can combine multiple filters to narrow down results even further.
Inventory Sync Settings by Channel
Click Inventory Sync Settings by Channel to configure how inventory sync behaves for each connected eBay account.
This area controls:
Whether 3Dsellers pushes quantity changes to eBay
Whether eBay orders reduce inventory inside 3Dsellers
Inventory Updates from Product Changes
This setting controls whether quantity changes made inside 3Dsellers are pushed to eBay.
Examples of inventory changes include:
Manual edits
CSV uploads
Bulk actions
Quantity changes from orders
Options:

Inventory changes remain inside 3Dsellers only.
Update the products quantity on eBay
3Dsellers automatically pushes quantity updates to your eBay listings.

A new inventory action must occur first, such as:
Manual inventory edit
CSV upload
Bulk update
Received order
After the next inventory event occurs, synchronization begins normally.
Inventory Updates from Received Orders
This setting controls whether incoming eBay orders reduce inventory inside 3Dsellers.
Options:
Don't update the product quantity on 3Dsellers
Orders do not affect inventory counts.
Update the product quantity on 3Dsellers
Each imported order automatically reduces the SKU quantity.
Common Inventory Sync Workflows
Use Case 1 — Same SKU on Multiple eBay Accounts
Scenario
You sell the same SKU on:
eBay US
eBay AU
Both listings use SKU:
ABC-DEF
Current inventory:
20 units
Setup
Add the SKU to Inventory Sync
Set Warehouse = 20
Enable:
"Update the products quantity on eBay"
"Update the product quantity on 3Dsellers"
for both accounts in the channel settings.
Result
When an order is received on eBay US:
3Dsellers reduces inventory from 20 → 19
The updated quantity syncs automatically to:
eBay US
eBay AU
This prevents overselling shared inventory.
Use Case 2 — Manual Restocking
Scenario
You receive 50 additional units of:
JHI-JKL
Current stock:
3 units
What to Do
Open Inventory Settings
Edit the quantity from:
3 → 53
Save changes
Result
3Dsellers immediately updates all synced eBay listings.
Use Case 3 — Bulk Restock via CSV
Scenario
You receive a warehouse shipment affecting dozens of SKUs.
What to Do
Download the CSV template
Enter updated quantities
Upload the CSV file
Result
3Dsellers updates all matching SKUs and syncs the new quantities across connected channels.
Use Case 4 — Excluding One Marketplace from Sync
Scenario
You manage inventory manually for your eBay FR account and do not want automated quantity updates.
What to Do
Open Inventory Sync Settings by Channel
Locate your eBay FR account
Select:
Don't update the products quantity on eBay
Result
eBay FR remains unmanaged
Other enabled channels continue syncing normally

Exporting inventory is useful for:
Reconciliation
Warehouse reporting
External backups
Supplier communication
Review the Inventory Log
If inventory looks incorrect, check the Inventory Log first.
It provides a complete history of:

Inventory events
User actions
Warehouse updates
making it the best place to troubleshoot unexpected stock changes.
