For smaller businesses, there needs to be a way to limit the overall amount of sales that can happen in a time frame, especially for commission-based work. Otherwise, there isn't an easy way to make sure that a smaller business doesn't collect too much of a backlog of orders that take a while to fulfill. As it is right now, if you want to limit how many sales happen overall, you need to go and edit the stock of every single item individually.
Bulk item editing just recently became a new feature, and despite it appearing on the same page that shows the Available to Sell count, that count is not able to be edited in bulk. This seems like a very easy feature to implement.
