Decimal separator

Comma or point. A comma is interpreted as a decimal separator only if followed by two digits to avoid ambiguity with a comma being used as a thousand separator.

The following notation will be ignored by Stockeo and will not update the stock of this product in your store.

Shopify only allows quantity to be stored as an integer. When the quantity in the feed is a decimal number, it will be rounded in accordance with the mathematics.

The above notation will update the stock to 3 and 4 respectively.

Approximate values

Sometimes in the feeds from some suppliers, there is a notation that the quantity of product is greater than a certain value. Stockeo then always sets the stock equal to this value, omitting the greater than and plus signs.

All of the notations above are equivalent and will result in the following results:
