Handling time, condition, return policy, markup, which channels a range belongs on. These are decisions about a kind of product, not about each product. Set them on a folder, and everything inside it inherits them.
Pick a folder in your tree and its rules pane opens beside it. Anything you don't set is inherited from above, and shown as such. You can always see where a value came from.
Condition and handling time for every channel. Plus Amazon's fulfilment channel and shipping template, and eBay's payment, return and fulfilment policies.
Free-text guidance for the extractor on this range. It is applied to everything imported into the folder.
A markup percentage for the range. A folder of high-margin lines and a folder of commodity lines don't have to share one number.
Which marketplaces this part of the catalogue belongs on at all. Not every range should be on every channel.
Your folders are for you. The marketplace has its own category tree, with its own required attributes. Matching the two is the part nobody enjoys.
Type what the product is, not what the marketplace calls it. Category search works on meaning, so “frying pan” finds the right node even when their label is worded differently.
Marketplace categories and product types are pulled and refreshed in the background, per marketplace and country. You match against today's taxonomy, not last year's.
Choosing a category also settles which attributes are mandatory. That is what makes the “missing fields” list in AI review meaningful, not generic.
Folders are not categories. Products get a marketplace category from the AI listing run. Folder rules supply everything around it.
Click a folder and its rules open beside it. No navigating away and losing your place in a catalogue of two thousand lines.
| Field | Value used | Comes from |
|---|---|---|
| Handling time | 2 days | Set here |
| Condition | New | Kitchen |
| Markup | +32% on cost | Cookware |
| Amazon fulfilment channel | FBM | Set here |
| eBay return policy | Returns 30 days | Kitchen |
Build the tree that matches how you think about your range. Add, rename and remove folders as the catalogue grows, nested as deep as you need.
Search by name or id rather than expanding your way down. Useful once the tree is big enough to be worth having.
Each field shows what will be used and where it came from. A rule set three levels up is visible, not something you have to remember.
Folder rules apply when a product is next built or updated. Live listings are never silently rewritten.
Change a folder's handling time and live listings stay as they are. The new value is used the next time those products are pushed.
Markup sets the opening price. Applying it to products that already have a price is a deliberate one-click action on the folder, and it asks first.
Switch a channel off for a folder and nothing new from it is published there. Anything already live stays live.
