# Removing `permitsSkuSharing` field from fulfillment service

As of API version 2026-04, we've removed the `permitsSkuSharing` field from the [`FulfillmentService`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/FulfillmentService) object and from the [`fulfillmentServiceCreate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/fulfillmentServiceCreate) and [`fulfillmentServiceUpdate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/fulfillmentserviceupdate) mutations. SKU sharing will be enabled by default for all fulfillment services.

### Why we made this change

By enabling `permitsSkuSharing` for all fulfillment services, we're standardizing inventory behavior across fulfillment services and simplifying the API. Previously, having `permitsSkuSharing` set to disabled would restrict inventory to a single location. This didn't always represent how the merchant's inventory item was setup in the real world.

### Impact on your app

* **GraphQL**: In the `unstable` or `2026-04` and later releases, if you are querying for the `permitsSkuSharing` field or sending it in mutations in API version, you will begin receiving errors.
* **REST**: In the `unstable` or `2026-04` and later releases, the `permitsSkuSharing` field won't be returned in `GET` requests. In `POST` and `PUT` requests, the `permitsSkuSharing` argument will be ignored.
* `permitsSkuSharing` will be enabled for all fulfillment services.
* When `permitsSkuSharing` was disabled, inventory could only be stocked at a single location. With it enabled for all fulfillment services, inventory can be stocked at multiple locations.

### What you need to do

* Remove any reads/writes of `permitsSkuSharing` from your code for the `unstable` or `2026-04` and later releases.
* Review any business logic that assumed inventory could only be stocked at a single location for a fulfillment service.
