Why did my item count change after I migrated from Big Cartel?

After migrating from Big Cartel, the quantity of each product might be set to 1000. This is due to the way Big Cartel handles inventory data and how it's interpreted during the data migration process. Cart2Cart's data migration service automatically adjusts for this, ensuring a smooth transition to your new platform.

Understanding Quantity Settings After Big Cartel Data Migration

The reason for this adjustment is that Big Cartel doesn't explicitly define a "quantity" field in the same way many other e-commerce platforms do. To ensure your products are properly represented on your new store, Cart2Cart sets the initial quantity to 1000. This allows you to easily manage and adjust your inventory within your new platform, such as Shopify, WooCommerce, or Magento, according to your specific needs. If you need to migrate from Big Cartel to another platform, Cart2Cart can help.

Next Steps After Your Big Cartel Migration

After the data migration is complete, we highly recommend reviewing your product inventory within your new store. This will allow you to fine-tune the quantity settings according to your actual stock levels. You can easily adjust the quantities for individual products or use bulk editing tools available in your new platform's admin panel.
