Does Vareons support stock tracking for product variants?
Last verified: 2026-09-18
Vareons supports stock tracking for product variants on products with variants such as size and colour, through a colour-by-size matrix where the final quantity is typed per cell, while the product row shows total inventory. Variant quantities must be edited from the Edit Stock action because the row total is not directly editable in the table. This helps fashion, footwear, and accessories stores selling one product in multiple options, since the merchant learns each variant balance precisely instead of a misleading total that may hide a sold-out size.
Variant stock setup steps
- Open stock management and pick the variant product whose quantities need setting.
- Use the Edit Stock action to reach the product colour-and-size matrix.
- Type the final quantity into each variant cell carefully without mixing it with the product total.
- Save the change and review the total inventory shown on the product row after updating.
- Repeat for each variant row needed and follow the movements recorded per change.
Always adjust through the Edit Stock action since the row total is not directly editable, type the final quantity per cell of the colour and size matrix carefully, review the product total after each change, and never mix whole-product sets with variant cells.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I adjust stock for a specific size?
Open stock management and use the Edit Stock action on the product to reach the colour-and-size matrix, then type the final quantity into the needed size cell and save. Review the product total after saving to confirm the change reflects on the overall balance.
Why is the row total not editable?
The row total is computed from variant cells, not an input field, so changes must go through the Edit Stock action at cell level. This design prevents the common mistake of spreading a total number across variants unintentionally.
Is each variant tracked with its own movement?
Yes, every quantity change records as a movement tied to a reason such as manual set, add, remove, or sale at variant level. Review the movement history from View history in the row actions menu when auditing any count gap.
