|---|---|
| Receive return | Creates a return for any selected item that’s on an active cycle and marks it received in one step. Items already on a return, or not on a cycle, are skipped. |
| Visibility | Sets all selected items to Active, Draft, Retired, or Sold. |
| Warehouse | Moves all selected items to the chosen warehouse. |
| Pick location | Sets the same pick location on every selected item. |
| Change product | Reassigns all selected items to a different product/variant. |
| Create item | Turns every Unknown tag in the list into a new item under one product/variant — see Create item. |
Confirm the split
Before any action runs, the confirmation sheet shows how many items will be touched and groups the rest by skip reason (for example, Already returning, Not on a cycle, Unknown tag).
