WC Inventory Overview 1.43.0 — Apply Replenishment Defaults to Variations

Release Date: August 2026
Plugin Version: 1.43.0
Database Version: 11 (unchanged from v1.42.0)

Overview

This release adds bulk Set/Clear for replenishment defaults on a variable product’s variations, using WooCommerce’s existing variation bulk-edit workflow.

You can apply a preferred supplier and/or a default replenishment quantity to all child variations in one action — or clear those fields in bulk. Each variation still keeps its own values afterward and remains independently editable.

This is copy/apply now, not inheritance. There is no ongoing parent-to-variation link, and the variable parent itself does not receive these replenishment defaults from this workflow.

What's new

Variation bulk apply (M26)

  • Set preferred supplier across all variations of the product being edited (choose from active eligible suppliers).
  • Clear preferred supplier on all variations.
  • Set default replenishment quantity across all variations.
  • Clear default replenishment quantity on all variations.
  • Actions appear in the classic WooCommerce variation bulk-edit menu on the product edit screen.
  • After apply, each variation keeps its own meta and can still be edited individually (same as before).

Product limit

  • Bulk apply supports products with at most 100 variations. Products with more than 100 variations must have defaults edited per variation.

What this does not do

  • Does not create Purchase Orders.
  • Does not change stock quantities or product costs.
  • Does not invent parent-level replenishment defaults or inheritance rules.
  • Does not change Planning or Bulk Draft PO behavior from v1.42.0 — those features continue to use each variation’s own stored defaults.

What to expect after upgrading

  • No database change — DB_VERSION stays at 11. No migration runs.
  • Existing preferred-supplier and default-quantity settings on products/variations are unchanged until you run a bulk action.
  • Inventory Overview, Planning, and Draft PO workflows from earlier releases remain available.

Compatibility

  • Requires PHP 7.4+
  • Requires WordPress 6.0+
  • Compatible with WooCommerce 6.0–8.5+
  • HPOS-compatible (High-Performance Order Storage)

Upgrade notes

Back up as you normally would, then upgrade. Because there is no schema change, this is a plain code update.

Roadmap note

v1.43.0 completes the currently scheduled replenishment roadmap. Further ideas (for example advisory concurrency UI, hiding unused parent-level fields, or forecasting) remain optional backlog only and are not scheduled as a next numbered milestone.
