Hi,
I have just opened a store here at Bricklink and have a problem with Lot ID.
I'm using BrickStore. I have put in a new item in BrickStore and Exported
it to BrickLink as a Mass-Upload. I can find the item in My Store on BrickLink
with all the information, included the Lot ID. But when I now try to change anything
on the item in BrickStore and export it to BrickLink using Mass-Update, I get
an error saying that it does'nt have an Lot ID.

How can I get the Lot ID from BrickLink into my BrickStore?

Maybe close brickstore first,
Open it and download store inventory, make changes and the do a mass update again.

The LotID is in your shop Inventory (ctrl+I ctrl+S) in BrickStore.
Then if you change something, mass UPDATE (not upload!)

INDEED UPDATE! UPLOAD WOULD DOUBLE YOUR SELECTED INVENTORY TO BRICKLINK HAHA

I notice it’s a frequent remark / pitfall.  Couldn’t the actions be named something
clearer in BrickStore?
(After all, it’s not BrickLink: fast changes are possible )

Agreed, it should show what's on BrickLink:
https://www.bricklink.com/invXML.asp

As:
* Add many items at once to your store inventory
* Update many items in your store inventory at once

So it could be:
* BrickLink Mass-Add XML to clipboard
* BrickLink Mass-Update XML to clipboard

One could open an Issue on github, Robert may change it; even if sometimes he's
a blockhead and won't... for reasons
