Stock Multiplier for WooCommerce solves a critical inventory challenge: selling products in packs while accurately tracking individual units. Whether you sell 6-packs of beverages, bundles of 3 items, wholesale cases, or fabric by the meter – this plugin automatically calculates the correct inventory reduction and tracks every single stock movement with a complete audit trail.
The Problem: You sell a 12-pack of soda, but WooCommerce only reduces your inventory by 1. You need to manually track that you actually sold 12 individual cans.
The Solution: Set a stock multiplier of 12. When someone orders 1 pack, your inventory automatically reduces by 12 units. Plus, you get a complete history of every change – who made it, when, and which order caused it.
Perfect for online stores selling bundles, packs, wholesale quantities, bulk products, or any multi-unit items where accurate inventory tracking is essential for business operations.

<h4>How It Works</h4>
Stock Multiplier: 
1. Set a “stock multiplier” value on any product or variation 
2. Customer places an order for that product 
3. Plugin calculates: <code>stock reduction = ordered quantity × multiplier</code> 
4. Inventory is reduced by the calculated amount 
5. Change is automatically logged to inventory history
Inventory History: 
1. Every stock change is automatically tracked and logged 
2. View complete history in the “Inventory History” tab on product edit page 
3. See date/time, product/variation, action type, before/after quantities, order links, and user information 
4. Add notes to manual stock adjustments for future reference
Example: A 12-pack of soda has multiplier set to 12. Customer orders 2 packs. Your inventory reduces by 24 cans (2 × 12 = 24), and the history shows: Order #123 reduced stock from 100 to 76 (-24).
