| Is it possible to part out sets to your stockroom and when you take the parts
out of stockroom have them combine to parts you already have listed without making
2 listings for parts you already have. I want to do the computer work first before
I do the physical work but not if is going to give me for example listings for
2 sets of black technic pins, blue technic axle pins, etc.

Once there is another "lot" listing, I don't think that you can combine them
(I couldn't find anything). I know when you part a set out you can use that
if it finds an existing lot to combine them together, but you'll have to
track the parts at that time which for me was just as annoying.
What I've done is part the set out to the stock room and then when I'm
ready to move everything to my inventory, promote it all at once. This creates
duplicates, but if you use your inventory menu, search for "non-unique" items
and you will see only the duplicates. You can then manually add the lots together
and delete the dups. It's still kind of annoying, but at least you can clean
up your lots.

You can also consolidate lots when parting out and specify that the new stockroom
option is to be used -- of course, this has the effect of moving your current
inventory into stockroom along with the newly-parted out set.

BrickLink has minimal inventory management unfortunately  What you can do though
is use BrickStock for this. If you're doing it on a larger scale, that's
probably your best bet.

| I always part sets out in stockroom A, B or C. In the remarks field I enter the
set number, the quantity of sets I'm parting out and the date e.g. 7x1234
011421 which can be helpful later. When I've completed sorting the 7 sets
sets physically, I can also at that time check if the quantities in stockroom
B match what I've in the actually parted out sets. Here it is helpful to
search on the text you entered in the remarks field and the stockroom you used
to part out in.
Let's say I part set 1234 out in stockroom B. Afterwards I go to the inventory
page and search for all parts in set 1234 by entering the set number in the field
titled "Parts from Set:".
https://www.bricklink.com/inventory.asp
The resulting lots should be all lots that include parts that appear in set 1234.
I subsequently combine the lots manually which is a little cumbersome but it
gives me more control. At the time where I combine lots, I also concatenate the
remarks fields. Thus I always know where the parts originated from. I may start
out by just combining some of the lots and add those to my store front.
