# Enable and Disable Listings

> How to turn listings on or off, one at a time or in bulk, and how to find the ones that should come down.

You can disable a listing to stop selling it, and enable it again later. Both take effect right away.

## Disable a listing

1. Open the listing and click its actions menu.
2. Choose **Disable** and confirm.

The dialog also has a **Listing notes** box, pre-filled with the listing's current notes, so you can record why you're turning it off in the same step. See [Add Notes to a Listing](/help/channels-listings/add-notes-to-a-listing).

A disabled listing is no longer active: its offers are not sent to the marketplace, and it's excluded from submissions. For listings with multiple variants there's an **Also disable all variants** checkbox — leave it checked unless you're keeping a specific mix of enabled and disabled variants.

To re-enable, open the same menu and choose **Enable** (with a matching **Also enable all variants** option).

Disabled listings and variants stay visible on the **Listings** page and the variants list, marked with a **Disabled** state badge, so nothing drops out of view when you turn it off. Use the state filters to narrow what you see: filter on the **Disabled** state to review only what's turned off, or pick the active states to hide disabled entries. Searching by SKU, barcode, external ID, title, or notes matches every state as well.

A variant stays disabled even with that box checked if another active variant on the same marketplace already uses its SKU, barcode, or source product variant. That happens when a listing is rebuilt for a new season and the old variants are superseded rather than removed — two active variants can't share those values, so the older one is left as it is and the rest of the listing is enabled normally.

## Disable or enable many listings at once

On the **Listings** page, select the listings (or use **Select all** to include every listing matching your current filters), open **Choose action...**, and pick **Disable** or **Enable** under **Listings**. The same options apply as for a single listing: **Also disable all variants** is checked by default for a bulk disable, while **Also enable all variants** is unchecked by default for a bulk enable so variants you turned off on purpose stay off unless you opt in.

## Disable from the product side

If you're pulling a product off every marketplace at once, do it from the product instead: open the product and choose **Disable Associated Listings**. This disables every listing variant linked to that product across all marketplaces. The same action is available in bulk when you select products on the **Products** page.

## Find what should come down

The **Products** page's filter presets include a **Products to Unlist** view for each marketplace — listed products that no longer match your [listing rules](/help/channels-listings/create-listings-from-your-products), like items that dropped below your minimum stock or picked up an excluded tag. It's a ready-made cleanup worklist: select the products it shows and disable their listings in bulk.
