Upright Books now allows users to change a unit’s warehouse status without having to reach out to support for assistance.
What This Means for You
  • In the event that an available book is no longer available, you can update the status of the inventory unit (UID) from “available” or “committed” to “not found.”
  • If you later locate the book and want to restock it, you can change the status from “not found” to "available."
How It Works
  1. Navigate to the Product in Upright Lister
  2. Click on “Edit” located at the bottom of the product drawer
  3. Scroll down to the Inventory Units section
  4. Locate the UID that you want to update
  5. Here you have options to edit the Location, Supplier, and the Warehouse Status

  1. Click “Save” in the upper right corner after making any changes
We've resolved an issue causing pick list items to appear out of order on orders involving books with more than one Inventory Unit/UID for the same SKU.
The root cause was in how Lister determined a book's location for sorting purposes. Both the Location field under a product's Item Details and the pick list sort logic were referencing the first location a book was ever assigned to, rather than the current location of the specific unit that was actually sold. This was inconsistent with the pick list history view, which correctly displayed the unit's actual location.
What This Means for You
If you sell books that have multiple units sharing a SKU, you may have noticed pick list items showing up in an unexpected order. This is now corrected.
What You Should Do
No action is needed on your end. This fix is already live, so pick lists for orders meeting these conditions should sort correctly going forward.
To address a new eBay requirement to standardize size values on applicable listings starting mid-July 2026, Lister will begin automatically normalizing size values on the backend, before they reach eBay.
What This Means for You
For example, "Small" will be converted to "S" when needed. If a size input can't be matched to a valid eBay value, the listing will need manual review as usual.
Worth noting, eBay data shows standardized sizes convert at roughly twice the rate of non-standard ones (3% vs. 1.5%).
What You Should Do
This improvement won't require any workflow changes on your part.
This week, you may notice a slightly different look to our chat support widget. We're transitioning to a new chat platform, and while the interface has a different feel, our goal remains the same: making it easy for you to get the help you need.
The new tool also allows us to better connect the dots on our end between chat, email, and our developer ticketing system, which means more context and continuity for our team when supporting you.
What This Means for You
The experience should feel familiar, and your access to our knowledgebase remains available directly within the widget.
What You Should Do
No action is needed on your end. The transition is happening automatically this week.
That said, if anything ever looks off or behaves unexpectedly, we're here to help. Whether you prefer to look something up on your own or reach out directly, you can get answers through whichever method works best for you:
Our team is available weekdays from 8am to 7pm Eastern for live support.
We're updating the filter layout in the Order Manager and Product Manager to better match how clients work.
After reviewing usage patterns across the platform, we identified the filters our clients rely on most and moved them to the top. The filters you reach for constantly are now the first ones you see, reducing the need to scroll or hunt through less-used options.
What's changing:
The order of filters in the Order Manager and Product Manager filter bars.
What stays the same:
All existing filters remain available, no functionality has been removed or changed.
Why it matters:
Less friction when filtering means faster workflows, especially for high-volume operations where you're applying the same filters repeatedly throughout the day.
No action is needed on your end. The updated filter layout will be live with the next deployment.

Users with an AI listing tool, such as pearldive, connected to Lister via API tokens can now assign custom and default roles to their API tokens to fine-tune the access the token has to Lister.
This change means that if you assign an API Token a custom role with Training Mode activated, all listings created with that API token will move to the Pending tab in the Listing Manager for manual review before being listed online.
See our help guide on How to Review and List Pending Listings for more details on publishing pending listings.
To get started, create a custom role with Training Mode activated. From there:
  1. Navigate to Admin>Developer
  2. Generate a new token, or click the pencil icon next to an existing API token
image
  1. Select the custom role from the Role dropdown menu
  2. Click the blue "Save" button
