Use Stockroom as the digital representation of your real stockroom inside Dropstitch. It is where you work with products that are already in the system after import or publish, track what is live on each connected marketplace, update product information, and run delisting or cross-listing actions whenever needed.

Before you start

Have at least one product that was either imported from Shopify or published from List.
If you want marketplace status tracking, connect the relevant channels first in Set up Marketplaces & Cross-listing.
For Depop or Vinted status changes, sync actions, or delist actions that are still running, keep Chrome open with the Dropstitch extension installed and the marketplace session authenticated.
If Vinted is newly connected and re-logins are frequent, follow Build a trusted Vinted browser session for reliable Dropstitch publishing.

How it works

Stockroom is where Dropstitch shows tracked inventory after products are already in the system.

It acts as the digital representation of your real stockroom: the place where you can see what you have, check where it is live, update product information, and take follow-up actions on those products.

Products usually appear in Stockroom in 2 ways:

After publish: once you send products to marketplaces, Dropstitch shows their marketplace status in Stockroom by marketplace icon.
After Shopify import: imported Shopify products land in Stockroom so you can review them, enrich them, and cross-list them from Dropstitch.

Stockroom is mainly for 4 jobs:

What you use it for	What happens there
Verify live status	Marketplace icons show which channels are connected to that product and help you check whether the listing is live
Review imported inventory	Shopify imports appear there so you can spot-check products before editing or cross-listing
Update product information	You can open products from there and keep information current after import or publish
Monitor sold-item sync	If an item sells on one connected channel, Dropstitch tracks the related delist activity for other channels
Run product-level follow-up actions	Certain item actions, such as cross-listing, re-listing, or deleting on a specific marketplace, are triggered from the product row

For Shopify imports, eligible active and in-stock products appear in Stockroom, while zero-stock products come in as sold.

For extension-based channels such as Depop and Vinted, Stockroom reflects tracked status, but Activity Feed is still the place to inspect queue activity when something looks delayed or stuck.

How to use it

Open Stockroom.
Find the product you want to review.
Check the marketplace icons on that product row to see which channels are linked to that item.
Click a marketplace icon when you need to verify the destination listing status.
Open the product when you need to review or update its information after import or publish.
If the product came from a Shopify import, spot-check it in Stockroom before you bulk edit it or cross-list it.
If you need a product-level follow-up action, open the supported item menu for that row, such as cross-listing, re-listing, or deleting that product on a specific marketplace.
Open Activity Feed when a marketplace action looks delayed, stuck, or out of sync.

Success check

Imported products appear in Stockroom after the sync starts and completes.
Published products show the expected marketplace icons in Stockroom.
You can verify at least one live destination listing from the marketplace icon on the product.
You can open a product from Stockroom and update its information when needed.
If an item sells on one channel, the related sync or delist activity appears in Activity Feed.

Tips

Treat Stockroom as your tracked inventory control point after import or publish.
Use Stockroom as the digital mirror of your physical stockroom, not just as a status screen.
Spot-check a few imported Shopify products in Stockroom before you cross-list a larger batch.
Verify live status from Stockroom instead of guessing from the earlier publish flow alone.
If you want Dropstitch to keep tracking and auto-delisting intact, remove marketplace listings from Stockroom instead of deleting them directly on the marketplace.
Keep Chrome open for Depop and Vinted while publish, sync, or delist actions are still running.

Advanced settings

Recommended operating pattern: use Stockroom as the shared checkpoint for imported inventory, live listing verification, product updates, and cross-channel follow-up.
If your team splits responsibilities, one person can prep listings and another can use Stockroom to verify status, update products, spot sold-item sync behavior, and run product-level actions.
This works well because Stockroom reflects tracked post-import and post-publish state in one place rather than forcing repeated checks across separate marketplace tabs and separate inventory notes.

Troubleshooting

Marketplace icon is missing or looks wrong: confirm that marketplace is still connected and that the product was actually imported or published to that channel.
Depop or Vinted stays processing: open Activity Feed, keep Chrome open and authenticated, and use Why didn't my Depop or Vinted publish start? if the queue never begins properly.
Vinted keeps logging out while you monitor status: treat this as session warm-up behavior and use Build a trusted Vinted browser session for reliable Dropstitch publishing.
Sold item still looks live elsewhere: check Activity Feed first and let the sync or delist queue finish before you retry the same action.
Imported Shopify product is missing: confirm the product is active, in stock, and published in Shopify, then retry the import flow.
Item was deleted directly on the marketplace: Dropstitch can lose the tracked link for that listing, which can break future status checks or auto-delisting for that item.

Value reflection

Without Stockroom, one-of-one inventory forces operators to keep checking imported products, live listings, sold-item status, and product updates across separate tools and separate marketplace tabs. Dropstitch gives you one tracked inventory surface that mirrors the real stockroom, which reduces manual monitoring and lowers double-selling risk. For resale teams moving fast, that makes post-publish inventory much easier to trust.
