- Process batch-, serial-, or expiry-based products.
Step 1 Go to the bulk action
Log in to afosto.app.

You will now see a spreadsheet input screen.
Step 2 Select warehouse and business
- Give your bulk action a unique reference.
- Select the warehouse where you want to perform this action.
- Select the business where you want to perform this action.
- Click next if you agree with the selected options.
Step 3 Paste your data into the spreadsheet
You can copy and paste your data directly from Excel or Google Sheets.
The following columns can be used:
| Column | Required | Meaning in Afosto |
| SKU* | Yes | Unique product code in Afosto (must exactly match the SKU in the system). |
| Quantity* | Yes | The amount you add to stock. |
| Location | No | Warehouse location (e.g. A1-03-02) where the stock is physically stored. |
| Barcodes | No | Additional barcode(s) linked to the item. |
| RFID | No | RFID tag number (when using RFID tracking). |
| Lot number | No | Batch number for traceable products. |

What is required?
SKU (required)*
This is the unique product code in Afosto.
The SKU must exactly match what is in the system.
Without a valid SKU, stock cannot be added.
Quantity (required)*
The amount you add to current stock.
This is added to the existing stock level.
When should you use optional fields?
Only use these if they apply to your product:
Location
Use this if you work with fixed warehouse locations (racks/bins).
Lot number
Use this for batch-managed products.
Important for traceability and recalls.
Serial number
Use this for unique products (e.g. electronics).
Each row usually contains 1 unit.
Expiration date
Use this for products with an expiry date.
The system can later route or select based on this.
Price + Currency
Use this if you want to register a different purchase price per batch.
Weight / Weight unit
Use this when weight is part of your logistics process.
Step 4 Check your input
Always check:
- Are all SKUs spelled correctly?
- Does every row contain a quantity?
- Are dates in the correct format?
- Using serial numbers? → Usually 1 per row.
Step 5 Execute the bulk action
Click Execute.
- The system validates the rows.
- If there are errors, you will see a message per row.
- If successful, the stock is added immediately.
The stock is now available in real time within OMS/WMS.
Important notes
- This bulk action adds stock (it does not replace existing stock).
- Working with batches or expiry dates? Always fill those fields correctly.
- Serial numbers must be unique.
- SKU is leading — not the product name.
