Question(s) on creating a variation or parent child listing
Is it better to use existing listings to manage variants of a product(s) or is it better to create new listings "with" the parent creation?

Hi @Seller_LTNvvFJ2jqJOv,
From a technical standpoint, both approaches will achieve the same end result. If you're using Flat Files to create or edit your listings, you have two options:
- Create the parent and child products in a single upload.
- Create the child products first (in one or multiple uploads), then upload a Flat File to create the parent product and link the existing children to it.
If you're not familiar with Flat Files and prefer using the web interface, it's generally easier to create the parent and child products all at once.
Kind regards, Michael
