Bulk edit products across managed venues

Use bulk editing to update HQ products already added to one or more managed venues. This saves time by pushing changes to multiple venues at once — whether it’s a single venue, a venue group or all managed venues.

In this guide, we'll walk through how to edit HQ products using the Bulk edit feature in your HQ account, select the venues you want to apply changes to and publish those changes.

Edit HQ products added by your venues

Follow these steps to push updates to products already added to managed venues, even if it's a single managed venue update.

1. From HQ Venue Manager, go to Products (or Products > Stock if you want to bulk edit stock products).
2. Select the product that you want to update.
3. Select Bulk edit (top right of the HQ product's settings page) or from the alert.
   
   
4. From the Venues tab, select the venues to apply changes to. Or, select the Tags tab to select one or more venue groups. 
   
   
5. Select Continue.

6. Edit product properties such as:

   Basic	Name, descriptions
   Image	Product thumbnail image
   Advanced	Add-ons, terms and conditions, product instructions

   
   

7. To edit variations, go to the Variations tab and update:

   Price (price rule)	Select an existing price rule from the drop-down. To create a new one, see the guide Get started with price rules Enter price changes per ticket (and per tier if a price rule is applied).
   Variation details	Name, description
   Variation thumbnail image	Shows up in POS and when a full online description is used
   Sold at venue	Shows whether the selected venues sell the variation: All sell = box ticked Some sell = box indeterminate None sell = box empty Check the box to force all selected venues to sell it.

   Hover over the reset icon to compare the variation details with the master product. If different, you can select the reset button next to each field to revert back to the master HQ product's default value.
   
   

   

   8. Select Continue to confirm changes.
   9. (Optional) Select Export to download a change log of changes made.
   10. Select Save and publish.

If the selected venues are selling the product, updates apply immediately.

Export product settings for managed venues

Export a CSV of product settings across venues to review differences before bulk editing.

1. From HQ Venue Manager, go to Products.
2. Select the product that you want to review.
3. The product settings page opens.
4. Select Export at the top right.
5. From the Venues tab, select the venues that you want to review. Or, select the Tags tab to select one or more tags (venue groups).
6. Select Export to download and review a CSV file.

The file shows the product settings you can bulk edit across selected venues (not all product settings).
