| Is there any reason why a function to part multiple unique sets can't implemented?
For example it would save a huge amount of time if I could sort all the lots
from three copies of five different sets and pack everything away once, rather
than having to go through the whole part out process five times.

I think to avoid errors. The more different sets in one go the more likely to
have errors.

You can use Brickstock and upload the file.

| You can part out multiple of the same set at once by adjusting the quantity of
sets parting out.
However, I don't know of a way (on Bricklink) to part out multiple different
sets in one fell swoop.

Perhaps you can change the way you work, because in my routine this is absolutely
no problem, and it's unlikely that Bricklink will change or upgrade anything.

In what way? For instance tonight I parted out three copies of two different
sets, which is done by sorting all the parts from each set into their individual
lots and then packing them away using the remarks system to tell me which drawers
the lots go into.
Is there an easier way than going through the whole process each time for each
unique set you part out? If there is I've been wasting a lot of time over
the past three years. I can't see why there can't be a function that
will allow adding multiple sets of multiple quantities to inventory at once without
having to rely on third party applications given there are almost always common
lots contained in different sets. The BrickLink catalogue knows what is contained
in each set, so surely it's just a simple matter of combining set inventories
much like it does when you part multiple quantities of the same set. In regards
to someone's comments on errors, what possible additional errors would occur
that don't already, besides possibly knowing which set any discrepancy came
from? In any case it's pretty simple to amend what you're putting into
inventory if you have more or less of something than what the BrickLink catalogue
suggests you should have.

Aha, it's because of remark based sorting.. I've never tried it and never
know how it really works. I always assumed people use software to generate the
locations or something because it seems like an awful lot of work to do it
manually. And I think you must be able to view where the part currently is located,
in case you already have it in you inventory... I'm sure there are tutorials
about this, since it's the first time I see this request, there must be a
work around.

It's pretty simple really. Every lot has a location and that location is
contained in the remarks field. If you get new lots not currently in inventory
you simply assign them to a new empty drawer. It's a much more space efficient
way of storing parts because you're not having empty drawers assigned to
parts you no longer have, and can easily move stock to bigger drawers (or smaller
ones) as lot quantities fluctuate and it allows me to currently store about 220,000
parts in about 10,000 lots in only 2112 drawers.

You can do this in Brickstock, open two unique files and copy one into another.
you would have multiple sets in a single file to upload.
