SanBar EXPress Sheet for WooCommerce

SanBar EXPress Sheet for WooCommerce brings a fast, keyboard-friendly, spreadsheet-style editor for your WooCommerce catalog. No more clicking into one product at a time — see and edit dozens of products on a single screen.

Features

• Inline editing for title, slug, status, price, SKU, weight, dimensions, and visibility
• Popups for categories (hierarchical), brands (auto-detects WC Brands, Perfect Brands, YITH Brands), tags, thumbnail, gallery, descriptions, and upsells
• GTIN/EAN-13 validation with checksum verification — optionally save SKU as _global_unique_id for Google Shopping / Meta Catalog
• Built-in duplicate detection for SKU and GTIN — prevents catalog corruption
• Configurable columns — drag-and-drop reorder, hide unused columns, font size, border color, width per column — preferences saved per user
• Concurrency-safe — detects when another user is editing the same product and warns before overwriting
• Batch saving — saves multiple products in optimized batches of 5 concurrent requests
• Visual edit indicators — edited rows highlighted with orange left border, edited cells marked with asterisk (*) and orange borders on inputs/selects
• Variable products are recognized — variable products in your catalog are listed and visually flagged (lilac left border); basic fields (title, slug, categories, etc.) remain editable, while variation-driven fields (price, SKU, stock, weight, dimensions) link out to the native WP/WC editor
• Keyboard shortcuts — Ctrl+S to save, Ctrl+Enter to apply popup, Esc to cancel, Tab trap inside popups
• Search by title, SKU, category or tag — automatic detection of code-like search terms, case-insensitive
• Quick stats — total, published, drafts, and out-of-stock counts at a glance
• WooCommerce HPOS compatible
• Translation-ready — all strings use __() / wp.i18n.__(). Portuguese (Brazil) translation included.

What’s NOT in this edition

This is the free edition. Editing of product attributes, variations and creation of variable/digital products is reserved for the Plus edition — see software.sanbazar.com.br. Existing variable products in your catalog are still listed and partially editable; only the variation-specific operations require the Plus edition.

Why use this plugin?

The native WooCommerce product list is great for browsing but slow for bulk editing. The Quick Edit and Bulk Edit features cover only a few fields. CSV imports are powerful but error-prone. SanBar EXPress Sheet sits between them: a familiar spreadsheet UI with full validation, designed for shop owners who add or update many products per day.
