I want to suggest that you can consolidate lots but ADD a remark.

For example :

If I have a 1x2 Brick x10 from set A
And I part out set B with 20x a 1x2 Brick.
I want them to show up as 1 lot in my shop, but I want 2 remarks in my inventory
!

remark 1 : x10 from set A
remark 2 : x20 from set B

In this way a user sees that I have 30, and I can see they come from 2 sets.

Already exists.
that's what the 'Concatenate old Remarks with new Remarks' tickbox does when
you add stock.

Already exists...

But I would like to add, I think you will soon have trouble with your system.....
From reading this and the other post, I think you are keeping the parts per
set you parted out.
At first this may be a good way, but it does mean you have to check multiple
boxes to find one part, set A and set B.

It would be better to invest in some ziplock bags and add all 1x1 bricks in one
bag, all 1x2 in another etc.
Put all the brick bags in the brick box and all the plate bags in the plate box
etc.
As the system grows you can build it out without having to re-arange your complete
inventory.
Or downsize as you run out of parts.

@Maxx,
I did that for 10x the 8043 Technic set, but for the rest, it just isn't worth
it.
I have 1 big shelf where EVERYTHING from my shop is on.
I do have zip-locks, I use them to ship the parts

It will be if you keep buying sets to part out

I do hope you put envelopes around the ziplocks before shipping
