# Edit Stock Details

### Where to edit stock details
Stock details belong to an item's stock in a location, so you edit them there, not from the Catalog. Open the item in the location that holds the stock you want to change, then find the Stock details section.
Does the item have stock in more than one location? Open the Locations tab on the Item details screen, from the Catalog or from the item's stock, and select the Go to stock arrow next to the location you want. The location you are in now is marked This location.

### Edit stock details
When all of the stock in a location shares one set of details, Stock details shows a single panel. Edit it in two steps.
1
Open the item's stock in a location, then select Edit details next to Stock details.
2
Update what you want to change, such as Unit cost, Min level, Reorder quantity, Tags, Notes, or any stock fields, then select Save.
---
### Change only some of your units
Not every unit has the same details? When you edit, the top of the panel reads Changes apply to all 8 units, using your own unit count. You can change that number so the edit applies to only some of them. The units you leave out keep their current details.
1
In edit mode, select the number of units next to Changes apply to, then choose how many units to change.
2
Update the details for those units, then select Save. The stock is split into separate stock rows, and a message at the top of Stock details says what the rows are now tracked by.
For example, say you have 8 units with a min level of 9, and you want 6 of them to have a min level of 10 and be marked as inspected on arrival. Choose 6 units, update the details, and save. You end up with two stock rows: 6 units with a min level of 10, and 2 units that keep a min level of 9.
---
### Edit one of several stock rows
When units have different details, Stock details becomes a table with one stock row for each set of details. The line under the heading lists what the rows are tracked by, such as unit cost, condition, and purchase date.
1
Find the stock row you want to change and select the three dots at the end of that row.
2
Select Edit, update the details, then select Save.

### Frequently asked questions
Can I edit stock details from the Catalog?
No. Stock details belong to an item's stock in a location, so open the item in that location and edit them there.
What happens to the units I do not choose when I change only some?
They keep their current details. Only the number of units you choose get the changes.
Why is my stock split into separate stock rows?
Changing only some of your units splits the stock into one stock row for each set of details. The line under the Stock details heading lists what the rows are tracked by, such as min level or Inspected on Arrival.
How do I edit the stock in another location?
Open the Locations tab on the Item details screen, from the Catalog or from the item's stock. Then select the Go to stock arrow next to the location you want.
Can I edit just one stock row?
Yes. Select the three dots at the end of the row, then select Edit.
