Catalogue and drafts

Catalogue

The Catalogue workspace provides a new way to manage your item data. Item data for a product is attribute information that is common for all sellers, for example, brand name, colour, material of a product. The Catalogue section provides you a custom set of tools for prioritisation, management and enhancement of item data.

Drafts

Drafts or Draft listings provide a new way to work with your listings through your Seller Central account. Any listings that do not meet listing policies at the time of submission will now be stored as drafts, so you can view and work on them at your convenience. These are saved in your account until you provide missing data or correct invalid data, at which time draft listings will be reprocessed. If you do not need them, you can delete them any time.

Complete drafts

The Complete drafts section under the Catalogue menu is your workspace to view and take action on your draft listings. You can add missing data or correct invalid data for your drafts one at a time or in bulk (further details below). Additionally, you can always export an Excel file containing your draft listings and add data to those drafts while uploading the file to Seller Central. For more information, see Upload My Inventory File.

To take action on your drafts, you can utilise:

• Inline editable fields
• Add a Product tool
