Uploading Amazon products to eBay Inventory

Hello,

 

I'm trying to upload products from Amazon inventory to eBay inventory.

 

According to Sample Files article, MIP supports Amazon CSV product templates:

After uploading the file, I get an error message - "MIP_145, The locale is missing for ProductID. Add a Locale value for this item."

 

I added a new column to the CSV file and tryed different headers "Locale", "locale", "Localized For", "Localized_For" as described in Item-specifics feed definitions article:

But still getting the same error.

Can someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thank you in advance,

Olena

Few people on these boards, Tools & Apps included, are even aware of the MIP program.

 

You do know that once you upload the info for MIP, that you should not use SellerHub, or any of the Active, Unsold, or other pages that make changes to item listings. The MIP program is a different animal than the normal eBay processing.

 

I will try to find the documentation that i have seen previously on this program. I decided not to use it for the above reasons.

I see that you found the same documentation that I did. If the header 'Locale' with a value of 'en_US' does not work for you, i would suggest the following...Ask the Experts...
