| I have a problem with parting out 71741 NINJAGO City Gardens. When I try to verify
the items in the partout screen, it takes so long that server gateway times out.
I get error #504 gateway time-out. I was wondering if somebody has a solution
for this or a workaround.

As stated on the set page
Additional Notes:
Due to the massive number of lines (1000+) in the inventory of this set, the
BrickLink system will time out during the part out process. You must part out
the set in two different halves.

This issue comes up a lot in the forums... there's an additional note added
to the set (see pic).
Basically, you need to upload in smaller chunks.
If you use software like BrickStore, I'd recommend using that. If you do
it through the BrickLink part out screen you have to select/deselect an awful
lot of checkboxes.

IMO that note is an embarrassment to Bricklink. No person is going to spend over
30 minutes clicking checkboxes. It would look better if the message would simply
say it's a known issue, they're working on it, and that you should use
third party software.
I'm also interested in this set and a few days ago I actually sent a message
to the helpdesk asking for an ETA on the fix. This has been an issue for years
now, I really do hope a fix is around the corner, especially as LEGO sets are
gradually getting bigger and this many lots will become increasingly common.
Adding stock is really core functionality of a Lego selling platform, so they
better get their act together.
I have no experience using BrickStore, in case Bricklink will keep on not giving
a damn, could anyone tell me what the easiest route will be to parting it out
through BrickStock? Can I get it to generate an upload XML for the updated lots?
I suppose I would have to read an export of my existing inventory into it so
it can consolidate?

A very basic guide...
1. Import your store inventory (for use later).
2. Import the set inventory into a different tab; setting import options as desired.
3. Sort the set inventory by Status.
4. Scroll to the bottom and delete any counterparts, extras and/or alternate
items you don't want.
5. Select all and consolidate lots (so you don't have duplicate lots).
6. Select all and set prices to e.g. BL's 6 month average.
7. Copy Values from Document... copy comments, remarks etc. from your inventory
that was imported earlier. Make sure to copy comments as BL uses this field
for consolidating lots.
8. Final check that you're happy with the data (everything has a price etc.)
9. Select item 1, scroll down to e.g. item 500, shift-click to select all items
from 1 to 500.
10. Export to BrickLink Mass-Upload XML to Clipboard.
11. Open BrickLink - Inventory - Upload.
12. Paste the XML into the upload box.
13. Set your consolidate options (old or new pricing etc.)
14. Verify File.
15. BrickLink will check the data and show you what it will upload (or any errors).
16. Once that batch has uploaded, go back through steps 9 to 15, selecting items
501 to 1000, 1001 to 1500 etc.
Sounds like a lot of steps, but it's pretty easy and pretty quick, especially
if you like your keyboard shortcuts

Great, thanks so much for the guide! That should fit in just fine with my workflow
I hope, though, that Bricklink can handle a 1000-lot XML update  But anyway,
cutting the xml into smaller pieces if necessary is doable - much more doable
than selecting 1000 tiny checkboxes

You can more easily split the parts in BrickStore into two files

Today I decided to try and figure out BrickStore. Not precisely to solve the
(still unsolved!! Bricklink come on!) problem of parting out large sets but for
a slightly different purpose. I'm looking to see if I can do a part-out of
a set into an existing bsx file. I'm having a hard time with the last step
above - what exactly do I copy from my inventory and how? My inventory list doesn't
match the much shorter set inventory list of course.. and why is comments relevant
for consolidating? Isn't that just about the lot ID? I would expect I have
to add the lot IDs from my inventory to the set inventory list somehow, and add
my existing quantities to the quantity in the set, then export that new amount
with correct lot ID? Is that wrong or right and if right how exactly do I do
that? BrickStore is pretty tough to understand if you've never worked with
it or any of its previous iterations before

Comments is relevant for consolidating as that is one of the fields that BrickLink
uses in order to consolidate e.g. if you had 2 lots that were identical except
for different comments, you would end up with 2 separate lots in your inventory.
| | I would expect I have to add the lot IDs from my inventory to the set inventory list somehow, and add my existing

|
BrickLink takes care of all that for you during the upload process.
| | what exactly do I copy from my inventory and how?
|
In BrickStore;
If you have't already, import your store inventory.
You need to have your store inventory file open.
Then from your parted-out file, on the Edit menu select 'Copy Values from
Document'.
A pop-up will appear showing a list of all the open files. Select your inventory
file from the list and hit Next.
You will then see a list of all the fields that you can copy.
Set the Comments field to Copy.
Make sure you set the other fields to Ignore.
Hit Finish.
This will copy all the comments from your store inventory to the parted-out file
(where parts match of course), allowing BrickLink to consolidate correctly.
Hope this helps

Aha I see, thanks! So it's creating a lot-id-less XML update and Bricklink
handles consolidating same as with an on-site part-out, so no need to gather
the lot ids from the inventory. I just noticed those options on the upload screen.
Haven't paid attention to them before as I've only been using these XML
updates to target specific lots.
And thanks for pointing out that copy feature, there's zero chance I would
have found that on my own
I was trying out BrickStore today not for this part-out problem specifically
(although I will in a few months, still have 20 Ninago City Gardens sitting around
) but to use it for some offline inventory management for a stock of parts
that is not connected to any Bricklink shop. As far as I can see, doing part-outs
into that stock bsx file entails nothing more than just Ctrl+C Ctrl+V (unless
I'm missing something).
Only thing is the price guide keeps showing up in USD even though I set the default
currency to EUR.. and I can't see whether or not it includes VAT.. (I know
this issue was addressed because I raised it, and resolved, I just haven't
looked at the result of that discussion until now)

Yes correct You can't part-out directly into an existing file, but simply
copy and paste between the 2 files. Just remember to remove counterparts/alternates
from the part-out if required. Also, be aware of creating duplicates this way,
although I think BrickStore automatically asks you how you want to consolidate
lots as you perform the paste. Failing that there is a 'Consolidate Items'
(Ctrl+L) option on the Edit menu.

Only thing is the price guide keeps showing up in USD even though I set the default
currency to EUR.. and I can't see whether or not it includes VAT.. (I know
this issue was addressed because I raised it, and resolved, I just haven't
looked at the result of that discussion until now)

Under Extras - Settings - General Tab - check what your Default Currency is set
to.
Also, near the top right corner of the BrickStore screen there is a currency
drop-down menu (see pic), that allows you to view prices in other currencies.
Check that is set to EUR.

I was trying out BrickStore today not for this part-out problem specifically
(although I will in a few months, still have 20 Ninago City Gardens sitting around
) but to use it for some offline inventory management for a stock of parts
that is not connected to any Bricklink shop. As far as I can see, doing part-outs
into that stock bsx file entails nothing more than just Ctrl+C Ctrl+V (unless
I'm missing something).

Yes correct You can't part-out directly into an existing file, but simply
copy and paste between the 2 files. Just remember to remove counterparts/alternates
from the part-out if required. Also, be aware of creating duplicates this way,
although I think BrickStore automatically asks you how you want to consolidate
lots as you perform the paste. Failing that there is a 'Consolidate Items'

Thanks!

Aah yes, that drop-down menu is what I missed. Thanks for pointing it out!

I agree that the system should be fixed where it can handle it. That definitely
should be a design goal. I don't know what that entails, but that is the
proper solution.
However, I have often seen people say you have to do hundreds of clicks because
you have to divide the inventory in half. I haven't done THIS set, but I
have done one of the affected sets and I didn't have to do hundreds of clicks.
I just did one upload with the minifigs and one color unclicked, a few dozen
clicks, and tried that. It went through. So then I just had to do an exclude
by default and click the minifigs and that one color. The sets vary in size
and maybe system load varies with time, but before doing hundreds of clicks it
is definitely worth a shot just to ease the burden a little and see if it is
enough.

I haven't personally tried this set either.
The note on the set's page, recommends splitting the upload in half. At
over 1100 lots that's 550 clicks to select/deselect if anyone follows that
advice.
I don't know if there is a hard and fast limit on how many lots will upload
successfully. As you say, it's probably dependent on current system load
or maybe it's a time limit... but if you tried uploading say 1000 lots (so
100 deselect clicks) and it failed, would you then have to start from scratch
and deselect all those 100 lots again?

I feel like directing people to use 3rd party software is more embarrassing.
But they should also only say they are working on it if they are working on it
and I hadn’t heard that they are.

Then again, not saying you're working on fundamental problems (it's really
the basis of a lego selling platform that you can list stock for sale), is even
worse. I guess there's just no non-embarrassing way out of this Maybe
the message should just say that they're looking to hire developers

You really don't have to do the amount of clicks that people say. The system
can handle around 1000 lots okay. So for this set you need to unclick about
114 lots. Then run it again and click "Exclude all items by default" and then
unclick those 114 lots. It is a chore, but when you factor in the job of pricing
and sorting the set, the 5 minutes extra this takes is a blip.
