# What happens to product variants in draft status in Stock Sync?

Stock Sync counts **all variants that exist in your Shopify store**in **Draft** status. Moving products to Draft in Shopify does **not** reduce the total variant count shown in Stock Sync.

If you want Stock Sync to **update only Active products**, you can apply a **Store Product Filter**:
* In your feed, go to **Step 3: Filters**
* Add a filter for **Status = Active**

This limits sync operations to active products only, but the total variant count displayed will still include Draft variants.
