Overview

Keeping your prices and stock counts up to date ensures customers always see accurate information at checkout — and prevents overselling when inventory runs low.
Only admins with Merchant Admin roles can edit product pricing and adjust stock levels.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:
  • Admin access to your Bila dashboard
  • The updated price in ZMW and/or the correct stock adjustment quantity ready

​
Update a Product Price

Adjust your price to reflect current market conditions, cost changes, or promotional periods.
  1. In the left sidebar, click Product Store.
  2. Locate the product you want to update.
  3. Click the options menu ... on the product row and select Edit Product.
  4. Scroll to the Pricing & Inventory section.
  5. Enter the new amount in the Price (ZMW) field.
  6. Click Save Changes at the top of the screen.
Confirmation: A green toast notification will appear — “Product updated successfully.”
Price changes take effect immediately after saving. Any customer who opens your storefront after the save will see the updated price — confirm the new amount is correct before clicking Save Changes.

​
Adjust Stock Levels

Use the quick-adjust tool to update your inventory count without opening the full product edit form.
  1. In the Products list, click the options menu ... on the product row.
  2. Select Adjust Stock.
  3. In the pop-up window, use the + or – buttons to set the adjustment amount — e.g. +10 for a restock, –3 for a manual correction.
  4. Add a note in the Reason for adjustment field — e.g. Restock from supplier or Damaged units removed.
  5. Click Confirm Adjustment.
Confirmation: The Stock column updates immediately — no page refresh needed.
The reason note is optional but strongly recommended. Every stock adjustment is logged in your Stock Activity and Audit Trail under Settings → Audit Trail, including the timestamp, the acting admin, and the reason note if one was provided. This creates a clean inventory record for reconciliation and accountability.
