| I'm trying to mass update the remark category for many things in my inventory.
I downloaded them to brickstore, made the remark update, and then tried to upload
via mass update. I keep getting an internal error. So then I tried to upload
the same thing via mass item upload just to see what would happen. This seems
to be working fine, but I deliberately did not complete this process in order
to avoid doubling the quantities.
Looking for help regarding this issue from folks that have experience with mass
update.

Step 1: when you have your BrickStore file at hand, give every Part the amount
-1
Upload them as usual
One remark: if you have 0 (zero) parts online in BrickLink, uploading -1 will
result in deleting the part from the BL database.
Step 2: make the changes in BrickStore, and upload every part +1
('new' everything)
Simple...
Tip: Uploading batches of about 600 different lines works fine, way more will
terribly slow down the proces (at BrickLink side).
Good luck!

Why these extra steps?
Brickstore (at least the current one) can handle mass update as it should.
Just changed some remarks and updated them using mass update.
@greenman,
what is the error you get? And where/when do you get it?

Thanks for the replies. As soon as I click on mass update in Brickstore, it
takes you to the Bricklink upload page as usual. However, when I paste the file
into the mass update box, it says internal error. Again, when i paste it into
mass upload box, it will work fine, but the quantities are going to be changed.

And can you try with only a few items (say 10)?
Do you get the same error?
If not, expand from that, doing 50, then 100 and so on.
And the moment you get the error again try to pinpoint which item is causing
the error.
And maybe with that the BS author can adjust things 
It could be that there is something that BL doesn't like in your whole inventory.

Not sure to understand.
You've to:
* download shop inventory (CTRL I, CTRL S)
* change one or few remarks
* select all
* export mass UPDATE and paste this in the BOTTOM field (important) of the mass
upload BL page where it says UPDATE.
If you do this it won't double the quantity, it just updates.

Sorry, but you clearly didn't read or interpret correctly what I have already
explained. The process that you detailed, is exactly what is not worrking, and
is exactly what is generating an internal error message.

I'll check.
But you know, as BrickStore is on Github there is a section "Issues" to post
and discuss there, including with the Author, rather than trying here with a
few that use it?
