Why is my product status showing “To be updated”?

If you edit the description or price of a published product and click on “Save as draft” rather than "Continue to publish", the changes you make will not be synced to your store listings, and the product status will become "To be Updated". Only after you click the "Update" button will the changes be applied to your store listings, and the product status will switch back to "Synced".

Even if a product is “To be updated”, it can still be sold in your online store and sent to production by PODpartner. Please keep in mind that if you have changed a product’s retail price without syncing it to your store, the product will be sold at the previous price you set.

Note that if the product you save as a draft has never been published to your store, the product status will be “Draft” instead of “To be updated”.
